Question

If parallelogram PQRS is dilated by a scale factor of 4 with a center of dilation at the origin what is the area of parallelogram

Answer 1

To answer dilation questions where the dilation is at the origin, you multiple each x and y values for each point by the scale factor.
if point P is (1,1) then to solve for dilation, you would multiple it by the scale factor of 4. the dilation of P would be (4,4).

hope this helps! have a good day
