Question

Select all the statements that are true

Answer 1

Options 2, 4 and 6 are True.

Explanation:

Triangle MNO is dilated by a scale factor of
`(3)/(2)` centered at M(0, 6).

Rule to be followed to dilate the vertices of the given triangle,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

Here, k = scale factor

By this rule vertices of the new triangle M'N'O' will be,

M(0, 6) → M'(0, 6) [Coordinates of M' will remain same as M because center of dilation is point M]

N(-4, -4) → N'(-6, -6)

O(6, -2) → O'(9, -3)

Option 1

M'N' is shorter than MN

Distance between M and N =
`√((0+4)^2+(6+4)^2)`

= 10.77

Distance between M' and N' =
`√((0+6)^2+(6+6)^2)`

= 13.42

Therefore M'N' > MN

Therefore, Option A is False.

Option 2

ON is shorter than O'N'

True.

Option 3

OM is longer than O'M'

False

Option 4

ON is parallel to O'N'

Since OM and MN are dilated with the same scale factor, O'N' will be parallel to ON.

True.

Option 5

OM is parallel than O'M'

Since, O'M' is the dilated form of OM,

Therefore, all the points (O, M and M') will be in a straight line.

False

Option 6

M'N' coincide with MN

True.

Therefore, Options 2, 4 and 6 are True.
