Describe as best you can in words the process of finding the center of dilation between a pre-image and image figure.
Draw lines connecting each pre-image point to its image point; the point where each of those lines coincides defines the center of dilation.

Given a Triangle ABC and its rotated image, Triangle A'B'C', describe in general the process for finding the center of rotation that maps Triangle ABC to Triangle A'B'C'.
Connect each pre-image point to its image point with a line segment. Find the perpendicular bisectors of each line segment. The point where those bisectors coincide is your center of rotation.
