Answer:

Explanation:

To find the new coordinate of a point after it has been scaled by a factor of 1/2, you can multiply the x- and y-coordinates of the point by 1/2.

For example, to find the new coordinate of point K', you can multiply the x-coordinate of K' (-8) by 1/2 to get the new x-coordinate, and multiply the y-coordinate of K' (8) by 1/2 to get the new y-coordinate. This gives you the new coordinate of K' as (-4,4).

You can use the same method to find the new coordinates of points L' and M'. The new coordinate of L' is (4,4) and the new coordinate of M' is (-2,4).

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
