Question

Graph the image of the given triangle under a dilation with a scale factor of 1/3 and center of dilation (0, 0) .

Answer 1

The given triangle has vertices
`(0,0), (0,9) ,(-6,0)`

After a dilation with a scale factor of
`(1)/(3)` about the origin , the image triangle will have vertices


`(0,0), (0,3), (-2,0)`
