Question

Draw a dilation of a quadrilateral with the vertices A(2, 1); B(4, 3);C(4,4); and D(2, 4), centered at (0, 0) and a scale factor of 3. Match thecorrect coordinate to each vertex.

Answer 1

We are given the coordinates of the vertices of a quadrilateral A(2, 1), B(4, 3), C(4, 4), D(2, 4).

A dilation of a scale factor of 3 and centered at the origin will map the vertices to:

A'(6, 3), B'(12, 9), C'(12, 12), D'(6, 12)

The quadrilateral is shown below.
