Question

Suppose triangle ABC will be dilated using the rule . What will be the distance from the center of dilation, Q, to the image of vertex A? 2 units 3 units 4 units 6 units

Answer 1

Answer: 4

Explanation:

Answer 2

4

Explanation:

The rule of dilation is
`D_{Q,(2)/(3)}.` This means that each distance QX' is equal to
`(2)/(3)QX,` where X is initial point and X' is its image after dilation.

Since QA=6, then

`QA'=(2)/(3)\cdot 6=4.`
