Quadrilateral PQRS has vertices P(2, 10), Q(6, 8), R(6, 3), and K(2, 3).

What are the coordinates of S’ after a dilation of quadrilateral PQRS by a factor of 2 centered at the origin?

Answer:


S'(4,6)

Explanation:

Dilation rules :

For a pre-image point
(x,y) which is dilated by a scalar factor of
k about the origin, the corresponding point of the image can be given by
(kx,ky)

Pre-image point
(x,y)\rightarrow (kx,ky) Image point

Given points of quadrilateral PQRS.

P(2,10)

Q(6,8)

R(6,3)

S(2,3)

The quadrilateral is dilated about the origin by a scalar factor of 2.

The co-ordinates of point S' after dilation can be given by:


S(2,3)\rightarrow S'((2*2),(2*3))

Thus
S'(4,6) (Answer)
