Answer:
Point E
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that point E is the only point where you can draw a straight line from E to A' to A, E to B' to B, etc. That is, the line doesn't have to turn or bend to reach these three points. This doesn't work with any other point, so you know E is the point of dilation.
You can more firmly determine this by looking at the ratios of the distances. Notice how E is the only point where the ratio from of E to A and E to A' is equal to the ratio from of E to B and E to B', and so on for each vertex of the quadrilateral.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
14 = -7w/8
Cross multiply
-7w = 14 × 8
-7w = 112
w = 112/-7
w = -16
Assuming you are focusing on the square only, then the answer is 9 inches.
You take the square root of 81 to get 9. Notice how 9^2 = 9*9 = 81. So if you're not familiar with square roots, then think backwards in a sense to get the answer.
