A Scale drawing\textbf{Scale drawing} is used to visualise big objects or space to a smaller size than the original. A drawing at a scale of 1:101:10 means that 11 units in the drawing are equal to 1010units in real life.

Similarly, Dilation\textbf{Dilation} is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original but in a different size.

In both cases, the image is similar to the original object only the size is either enlarged or reduced.
