Question

HELP please.

Pentagon QRSTU is dilated to form pentagon Q'R'S'T'U' .

If Q is located at (-2, 1) , which of the following can be used to determine the location of R?

Please look at the picture below.... the answer choices are also there.

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Here, originally, we are told that the point Q has coordinates (-2,1)

Now, its dilated point has the coordinates (-8,4)

what we can observe here is the the shape original polygon was dilated by a factor of 4 to give the image

Now the point R’ is (0,8)

To get the point R , we simply divide each coordinate by 4

Thus, we have (0/4 , 8/4)

This is same as option C
