PLEASE HELP idk what any of this means. 25 points

A dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 1/2 is applied to triangle ABC.
The result is Traingle A' B' C' as shown below.

Answer 1

Explanation:

A dilation is something that enlarges or shrinks an existing figure, retaining all angle measures. The two figures will be similar, not congruent.

A dilation of 1/2 (which is less than one) will make a figure smaller. You divide each coordinate point by two

(x, y) → (
`(1)/(2)x, (1)/(2)y`)
