Question

PLEASE HELP- A triangle has vertices A(0, 0), B (9, 4), and C(–2, 10). What are the coordinates of the triangle after a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 ?

Answer 1

Basically multiply the x and y coordinates of each point by 1/2

For example, I'll do C which is ( -2 , 10 )

-2 * 1/2 = -1 and 1/2 * 10 = 5

The new coordinate is ( -1 , 5 )

Now you can try the other points
