Question

If the original ordered pair in a shape was ( 3, 4), what would the new ordered pair be after a Dilation with a scale factor of 2 ?

Answer 1

(6, 8 )

Explanation:

Assuming the dilatation is centred at the origin, then multiply the coordinates by the scale factor 2, that is

(3, 4 ) → (2(3) , 2(4) ) → (6, 8 )
