Answer:
x = 9
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC ~ ΔPQR
Therefore, corresponding sides of these similar triangles will be in the proportional.
x =
x = 9
Similarly,
y =
y = 6
Transformation that changes the size of a shape is referred to as dilation.
- The scale factor that moves the large triangle to the small one is 1/5
- The center of dilation is: (-1,1)
<u>The center of dilation</u>
From the diagram (see attachment), the triangles share a common vertex at (-1,1)
This means that, the center of dilation is (-1,1)
<u>The scale factor of dilation</u>
To do this, we divide the side length of the small triangle with the corresponding side of the large triangle.
From the attached image:
So, the scale factor (k) from large to small is:
