If the height is kept the same, then the area is multiplied by 5.

For example, let's say we had a parallelogram with the properties of:

base = 2
height = 3

The area would be base*height = 2*3 = 6 square units.

If we kept the height at 3 units, but multiplied the base by 5, then the base is now 2*5 = 10. The new area is base*height = 10*3 = 30 which is exactly 5 times larger than the old area

new area = 5*(old area)

new area = 5*(6)

new area = 30 square units

Identify a sequence of transformations that maps triangle ABC onto triangle A"B"C" in the image below.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle A"B"C" is the image of triangle ABC after transformation.

From the given figure it is noticed that the point C lies on positive y-axis and point C" lies on negative x-axis.

It means the figure is rotated either counterclockwise 90° or clockwise 270°. The rotation rule is

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-y,x)$

The corresponding sides of image A"B"C" are smaller than the preimage ABC.

$k=\frac{A"B"}{AB}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Since k<0, therefore the transformation shows the reduction. The dilation rule is

$(x,y)\rightarrow (-\frac{1}{2}y,\frac{1}{2}x)$

$A(-3,0)\rightarrow (-\frac{1}{2}(0),\frac{1}{2}(-3))\rightarrow (0,-1.5)$

$B(3,0)\rightarrow (-\frac{1}{2}(0),\frac{1}{2}(3))\rightarrow (0,1.5)$

$C(0,5.2)\rightarrow (-\frac{1}{2}(5.2),\frac{1}{2}(0))\rightarrow (-2.6,0)$

Option B is correct.
