standard_description: Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by a center and a scale factor:
- A dilation takes a line not passing through the center of the dilation to a parallel line, and leaves a line passing through the center unchanged.
- The dilation of a line segment is longer or shorter in the ratio given by the scale factor.
problem_activity: Task
The goal of this task is to estimate the measure of angles in triangles with integer side lengths.
What are the angle measures in a triangle whose three sides each have length of one unit?  Explain.
What are the approximate measures of the three angles in a triangle whose side lengths are 3, 4, and 5 units respectively? Explain.
