Given:

The red figure dilated with a scale factor of s=\dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at the point (4,2) to get the green figure.

To find:

The coordinates of C' and A.

Solution:

If a figure is dilated with a scale factor k and the center of dilation is at the point (a,b), then

(x,y)\to (k(x-a)+a,k(y-b)+b)

In given problem, the scale factor is \dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at (4,2).

(x,y)\to (\dfrac{1}{3}(x-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(y-2)+2)            ...(i)

Let the vertices of red triangle are A(m,n), B(10,14) and C(-2,11).

Using (i), we get

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-2-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(11-2)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-6)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(9)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(-2+4,3+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(2,5)

Therefore, the coordinates of Point C' are C'(2,5).

We assumed that point A is A(m,n).

Using (i), we get

A(m,n)\to A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is (8,4).

A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)=A'(8,4)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4=8

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)=8-4

(m-4)=3(4)

m=12+4

m=16

And,

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2=4

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)=4-2

(n-2)=3(2)

n=6+2

n=8

Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (16,8).

Which pattern was created using only the translation of pentagon A?
Makovka662 [10]
Translation means only sliding it around, no rotation is allowed. So it’s the first one.

What is the equation x^2+12x-3=16 written in the form (x-p)^2=q using the method of completing the square ?
Alexus [3.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 12x -  3 = 16

{x}^{2}  + 12x = 19

{x}^{2}  + 12x + 36 = 19 + 36

(x + 6) {}^{2}  = 55

Find the value of X in the triangle shown.
zalisa [80]
X = 12

Use the Pythagorean Theorem.
13^2 = 5^2 + x^2
169 = 25 + x^2
Subtract 25 from both sides.
144 = x^2
Take the square root.
12 = x
