[tex]\text{pentagon}_2\ \sim\ \text{pentagon}_1\ \text{in scale}\ \dfrac{2}{1}=2\\\\\text{but}\\\\\text{pentagon}_1\ \sim\ \text{pentagon}_2\ \text{in scale}\ \dfrac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

the scale factor is, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale factor(k) defined as the ratio of the length of a side of image to the length of a corresponding side of the pre image figure.

Given that the first pentagon is dilated to form the second pentagon.

Length of a side of first pentagon(pre image) = 1

And

Length of a side of second pentagon = 2

then by definition of scale factor:

[tex]k = \frac{2}{1} = 2[/tex]

therefore, the scale factor is, 2.
