Answer:

Triangle ABC is dilated by a scale factor of 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The general rule for the dilation about the origin with a factor of k is

(x,y)\rightarrow (kx,ky)

You are given two triangles ABC and A'B'C'.

In triangle ABC:

  • A(2,4)
  • B(4,0)
  • C(6,6)

From the diagram, in triangle A'B'C':

  • A'(3,6)
  • B'(6,0)
  • C'(9,9)

As you can see

  • A(2,4)\rightarrow A'\left(\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 2,\ \dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 4\right)=A'(3,6)
  • B(4,0)\rightarrow B'\left(\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 4,\ \dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 0\right)=B'(6,0)
  • C(6,6)\rightarrow C'\left(\dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 6,\ \dfrac{3}{2}\cdot 6\right)=C'(9,9)

So, triangle ABC is dilated by a scale factor of \dfrac{3}{2}=1.5

Answer:

<h2>Triangle ABC is dilated by a scale factor of 1.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • The vertices of the original triangle are A(2,4), B(4,0) and C(6,6).

According to the graph, the vertices of the dilated triangle are A'(3,6), B'(6,0) and C'(9,9).

Notice that the dilation factor is a quotient between a dilated coordinate and an original coordinate. If we do this division

\frac{3}{2}=1.5\\\frac{6}{4}=1.5\\ \frac{9}{6}=1.5

Therefore, the dilation factor is 1.5.

The right answer is the second choice.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines is usually written as a / sin A = b / sin b == c / sin C    where a is the side opposite angle A ,etc.

The first equation is true because it is obtained by cross multiplying

a / sin A = b / sin B,  therefore   b sin A = a sin B.

The second one is not true.

The third and fourth are both true.
