Answer:KS=26

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find MQ. To find that we would use the formula

MQ=1/2(NP+LR) due to the trapezoid midsegment Theroum.

We know that NP=8 and that LR=20 so we can replace that into

MQ=1/2(8+20). After we add them we can get MQ=1/2(28). Finally, we can get MQ=14

To find the measure of KS we know that LR=1/2(MQ+KS). We can substitute to find 20=1/2(14+KS). We can then multiply the 1/2 to both sides which would equal 40=14+KS. After that, we could subtract 14 which would get us the final answer of 26=KS.

Please help! if abcd is dilated by a factor of 3, the coordinate of b would be
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

(-6, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of B to start with is

(-2, 2)

To dilate this by a factor of 3....

-2 * 3 = -6

2 * 3 = 6

The new coordinates of B' would be

(-6, 6)

A few things to know:

- The number 3 is called a "<u>scale factor</u>"

- Dilation means we are multiplying all the (X, Y)'s by the scale factor

- If the scale factor is <u>greater than 1</u>, the size of the shape overall increases

- If the scale factor is <u>less than 1</u>, the size of the shape overall decreases

- If the scale factor is <u>negative</u>, the shape size stays the same. The shape just rotates 180 degrees and moves to the opposite quadrant.
