Answer:
The scale factor is not 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for the dilated triangles
Triangle ABC is dilated through center point O to form triangle A'B'C'.
From the attachment, we have:
i.e. the distance from the center point to C
and
i.e. the distance from the center point to C'
The length of OC' is calculated using:
The scale factor (k) is then calculated by dividing OC' by OC
Hence, Tiffany's claim is incorrect.
First of all, we know that a line is 180°. This means if we add the angles of 61°, 57°, and angle y, we should get 180<span>°.
Simplify:
Subtract 118° to both sides:
We also know that all three angles of a triangle add up to 180<span>°. So we have:
Simplify:
Subtract 129° to both sides:
