Triangle ABC has vertices A(5, 3) , B(3, 7) , and C(1, 4) . Triangle ABC is dilated, and the vertices of the image are A′(7.5, 4

.5) , B′(4.5, 10.5) , and C′(1.5, 6) . The center of dilation is the origin.
What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Hello,

To find the scale factor, we have to look at what's going on in the problem. 

In point A, we are converting from (5, 3) to (7.5, 4.5).

We can write and solve equation to find the change (scale factor)

5x = 7.5  and 3x = 4.5

If you solve either equation, you will find the scale factor is 1.5.

Good luck,

Section B: Multiples and factors 1. Why is the number 17 classified as a prime number? ​

17 is a prime number because it’s only divisible by 1 and it’s self, so it only has 2 factors.

Given: ZDEF is a right angle. Using a paragraph proof, prove 41 is acute.
Slav-nsk [51]

Let G be some point on the diagonal line away from point E.

Angle DEG represents angle 1.

We're given that angle DEF is a right angle which means it's 90 degrees. Angle DEG is some angle smaller than 90 degrees. By definition, that must mean angle 1 is acute. Any acute angle is smaller than 90 degrees. There's not much else to say other than this is just a definition problem.

----------------

Extra side notes:

If angle 1 was a right angle, then that would mean angle GEF would have to be 0 degrees; however the diagram shows this isn't the case.

If angle 1 was obtuse, then there's no way we'd be able to fit it into angle DEF. In other words, there's no way to have an angle larger than 90 fit in a 90 degree angle.
