Question

4. Consider rectangle ABCD. Dilate ABCD by a scale factor of $\frac{1}{2}$ using a center of dilation at the origin (0, 0). Draw A'B'C'D' on the same coordinate plane. 5. Triangle FIP was dilated by a scale factor of $\frac{1}{4}$ centered at the origin to create triangle F'I'P', which has coordinates F' $(1, -\frac{1}{2})$, I'(2, -1), P'(1, 2). Write the coordinates of the vertices of triangle FIP in the spaces provided below.

4. Consider rectangle ABCD.
Dilate ABCD by a scale factor of (1)/(2) using a center of dilation at the origin (0, 0). Draw A'B'C'D' on the same coordinate plane.
5. Triangle FIP was dilated by a scale factor of (1)/(4) centered at the origin to create triangle F'I'P', which has coordinates F' (1, -(1)/(2)), I'(2, -1), P'(1, 2). Write the coordinates of the vertices of triangle FIP in the spaces provided below.

Step 1

In this case, the scale factor is 3. So, to find the coordinates of point F, you would multiply the x-coordinate by 3 and the y-coordinate by 3. Since the coordinates of F' are (1,-9), the coordinates of F would be (1*3, -9*3) = (3, -27). Similarly, to find the Show more…

Thanks for your feedback!

Am I just dividing and then multiplying by the scale factor? Is there more to it? Consider rectangle ABCD. Dilate ABCD by a scale factor of using the center of dilation at the origin (0,0). Draw A'B'C'D' on the same coordinate plane. Triangle FIP was dilated by a scale factor of centered at the origin to create triangle F'T'P, which has coordinates F' (1,-9), P' (62,-1), and P' (1,2). Write the coordinates of the vertices of triangle FIP in the spaces provided below:
