Step 1

Using the given translations, find the equation for circle O'


\begin{gathered} \text{ To translate the original circle to the left by 5 units, we add 5 to x} \\ \text{To translate the original circle up by 6 units, we subtract 6 from y} \\ \text{ Hence} \\ \text{The equation of the circle O after transformation becomes is } \\ O^(\prime)\colon(x+2)^2+(y-1)=16 \end{gathered}

That is the equation of circle O' becomes


O^(\prime)=(x+2)^2+(y-1)=16

From the image the green circle is that of circle O and the blue circle is that of circle O'

Equation of the new circle is

(x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 16

Step 1: Dilate the circle O' by a scale factor of 3 to get a new circle O"

To dilate the circle O', we multiply the right side of the equation of circle O' by 3² to get:


O^(\doubleprime)=(x+2)^2+(y-1)=3^2*16=9*16

Equation of the new circle after dilation becomes

O": (x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 144

The equation of circle is O(x - 3)2 + (y + 5)2 = 16Circle O' is the image of circle-example-1
