The dilated triangle by a factor of 1/2 using P as the center of dilation is attached

Dilating the triangle using P as the center of dilation

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The triangle

Also, we have

Scale factor, k = 1/2

Center = P

We start by dividing the side lengths of the triangle by 2 and then create the new figure about the point P

The dilated figure is added as an attachment
