Question

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 1 over 3 centered around (1, 2).

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B'D' ║ BD and will be shorter than segment BD.

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale factor of 1/3 means all image segments are 1/3 the length of the preimage segments (that is, shorter).

Image segments not on a line through point A(1, 2) will be parallel to the preimage segments.

For this dilation, ...

  segment B prime D prime will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD.
