Question

Geometry, SEMI-EASY question. I will give brainliest. Just want to double-check.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point O is the origin.

Then the coordinates of the vertices A,B and C will be,

A → (-12, -8)

B → (-8, 0)

C → (-6, -4)

Rule for the dilation of a point (x, y) by scale factor 'k' about the origin is,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

By this rule, coordinates of the vertices of the image triangle will be,

If k = $\frac{1}{2}$,

A(-12, -8) → A'(-6, -4)  

B(-8, 0) → B'(-4, 0)

C(-6, -4) → C'(-3, -2)

From the given options,

Option B is the answer.
