Question

What is (-0,2) and (-4,2) dialated with a scale factor of -1/2

Answer 1

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

tep 01:

Data

scale factor of dilation = -1/2

(-0,2) ===> ?

(-4,2) ===> ?

Step 02:

scale factor of dilation = -1/2

(-0 , 2)

`(-(1)/(2)\cdot0\text{ ,- }(1)/(2)\cdot2)\text{ = }(0\text{ , -1) }`

(-4 , 2)

`(-(1)/(2)\cdot\text{ (-4) , -}(1)/(2)\cdot2)\text{ = (2 , -1) }`

The answer is:

(-0,2) ===> ( 0 , -1)

(-4,2) ===> (2 , -1)
