Given the triangle ABC

we will find the image of the triangle under a dilation whose center is P and the scale factor is 1/4.

From the point P, we will draw PA' = 1/4 PA

And PB' = 1/4 PB and PC' = 1/4 PC

The image of the triangle will be as shown in the following picture:

As shown A'B'C' is the image of the triangle ABC
