The scale factor of the dilation is 1 over 2. Why? Well, going from A to A prime is a reduction of 1/2, going from B to B prime is a reduction of 1/2, and going from C to C prime is a reduction of 1/2. The figure is dilated, meaning it is shrunk rather than the shape and orientation being changed.

The back of Monique's property is a creek. Monique would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fen

So long as the perimeters are the same, rectangles and squares share the same area. For example, a square that is 2m by 2m across is 4m squared. A rectangle of 4m by 1m across is still 4m squared.

Therefore all we want to do here is see how big we can make our “square” perimeter using the creek. We have three sides to spread 580ft across, therefore if we divide this by 3, we get 193.3ft of fencing per side. If we then square this figure, we will then get the maximum possible area, which comes to 37,377ft squared. (That’s a huge garden).

The perimeter is 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The end-point of a side of square can be used to calculate length of a side. And the side will be used to calculate the perimeter.

Given

(3,-1) and (7,2)

Let

(3,-1) = (x1,y1)
