Question

Use the Polygon tool to draw an image of the given polygon under a dilation with a scale factor of 13 and center of dilation at ​ (0, 0) ​.

Answer 1

(3, 3) × 13 = (39, 39)

(0, 3) × 13 = (0, 39)

(6, -6) × 13 = (78, -78)

(9, 6) × 13 = (117, 78)

Explanation:

Because the center of dilation is at (0, 0), or the origin, we can just multiply the x and y values of each point by the scale factor of 13.

(3, 3) × 13 = (39, 39)

(0, 3) × 13 = (0, 39)

(6, -6) × 13 = (78, -78)

(9, 6) × 13 = (117, 78)
