The coordinates of the vertices of a
Coordinates after dilation
Given:
(2, 8), (2, 4), (6, 8), (6, 4); dilate using a scale factor of
Concept Used:
- The scale factor is k, so multiply every coordinates by k.
- Use (x, y) = (kx, ky) with each vertex.
Calculation:
The vertices of a polygon are (2, 8), (2, 4), (6, 8), (6, 4).
Let name the vertices − A(2, 8), B(2, 4), C(6, 8), D(6, 4).
The graph of given polygon is -
Scale factor of
So multiply every coordinate by
Graphing the new vertices after dilation -
