Answer:

The scale factor is

\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Line segmentAB has vertices A(−3, 4) and B(1, −2) .

A dilation, centered at the origin, is applied to AB. The image has vertices

A'(-1,4/3) and B′(1/3, −2/3) .

We know the rule for dilation by scale factor of k, is

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

This means that;

A(-3,4)\to A'(-3k,4k)

But we know, A' has coordinates (-1,4/3)

This means that

- 3k =  - 1

k =  \frac{1}{3}

We could also compare:

4k=4/3

Which gives

k=⅓

In 1603, German astronomer Christoph Scheiner began to copy and scale diagrams using an instrument that came to be known as the
schepotkina [342]

It should be noted that a pantograph consists of four rods that are joined together in order to form a parallelogram with the joints varying in relation to the scale of reproduction.

<h3>Pantograph</h3>

In a pantograph, the mechanical assembly is based on the shape of a parallelogram.

It should be noted that the operation of a pantograph can be related to dilation as it has a fixed center and two points which are a drypoint that follows the contour of the original drawing, as well as a pen point that traces the reproduction in an enlarged or reduced form.

In order to enlarge a drawing, the index is positioned between the fixed center and the pen. Therefore, to reduce it, the pen is set between the fixed center and the index.

Lastly, to copy a drawing on the same scale, it can be deduced that the index and the pen are equidistant from the fixed center.
