Answer:
The area of the shaded region is 21.45cm².
Given:
The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).
The rule of dilation is:
The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.
To find:
The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.
Solution:
The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).
The rule of dilation is:
Using this rule, we get
And,
The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).
Therefore, the correct option is B.
Steps:
1) Draw the circle and mark the center (A) and the given point (B)
2) Draw a line that passes through the center (A) and the given poiint (B).
3) Draw a perpendicular line to the segment AB.
The last line drawn is tangent to the circle at the given point.
