Answer 1

Answer:

The point at (-7, -5) = a

The point at (9, 3) = b

The point at (-3, 7) = c

The "a" point of the triangle is 12 units away from the center point.

So, 12 x 1/4

=> 12/4

=> 3

So, the "a" point of the dilated figure is  3 units left from the center.

=> So, the dilated "a" point is at (2, -5)

The "b" point is 8/4 (= rise/run = y-axis / x-axis) from the center point.

=> 8/4 = 2

So, the "b" point of the dilated figure is 1 unit right and 2 units up from the center point.

=> So, the dilated "b" point is at (6, -3)

The "c" point is 12/8 units away from the center point.

=> 12/8 x 1/4

=> 3/2

So, the "c" point of the dilated figure is 3 units up and 2 units left from the center point.

=> So, the dilated "c" point is at (3, -2)
