Answer:
a) 1/2; reduction
b) 5/4; enlargement
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, the scale factor is CP'/CP. When it is more than 1, the dilation is an enlargement.
Even before you run the numbers, you can tell if it is an enlargement or not. If the dilated figure is larger, P is closer to C than is P'. If P' is closer to C, then it is a reduction.
a) CP'/CP = (4-2)/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 . . . . a reduction
__
b) CP'/CP = 25/20 = 5/4 . . . . an enlargement

Thus the price will be $42
These could be some possible amswers:2/8, 8,32, 3/12
ANSWER:
d. x = 15, y= 15√3
EXPLANATION:
This is a special triangle, more specifically a 30-60-90 degree triangle. For sake of not confusing x and y, we will use z to use as our reference for solving this triangle. The side lengths for each angle are as follows:
• 60 degrees = z√3
- this is the value for your y answer
• 30 degrees = z
- this is the value for your x answer
• Hypotenuse = 2z
- this is what we already have
We solve for what we already have which is the Hypotenuse = 30:
2x = 30
x = 15
We now have our x value which is 15.
Now we just plug in that x value for every expression for every angle.
x = 15
y = 15√3
Sorry if I explained it too thoroughly but I’ll be glad to answer any questions or clarifications
