Question

Using the origin as the center of dilation and a scale factor of k=1/2 find the coordinates of the vertices of the image of the polygon below

Answer 1

Given

Using the scale of 1/2

This means we divide each coordinate by 2

`\begin{gathered} (0,3)=(0,1.5) \\ (-4,0)=(-2,0) \\ (2,0)=(1,0) \\ (0,-3)=(0,-1.5)_{} \end{gathered}`
