Question
tuesday
dilate \\( \triangle t u v \\) with a scale factor of 3.
- what are the coordinates of
\\( t ^ { prime } \\) ? graph the point on the
coordinate plane.
- what are the coordinates of
\\( u ^ { prime } \\) ? graph the point on the
coordinate plane.
- what are the coordinates of
\\( v ^ { prime } \\) ? graph the point on the
coordinate plane.
- is this an example of an
enlargement or reduction?
Step1: Find coordinates of original points
Assume \(T(-1, 2)\), \(U(2, -1)\), \(V(-1,-1)\) (by observing the graph).
Step2: Apply dilation formula
The dilation formula is \((x,y)\to(kx,ky)\) where \(k = 3\).
For point \(T\):
\(x=-1,y = 2,k = 3\)
\(x'=3\times(-1)=-3,y'=3\times2 = 6\)
For point \(U\):
\(x = 2,y=-1,k = 3\)
\(x'=3\times2=6,y'=3\times(-1)=-3\)
For point \(V\):
\(x=-1,y=-1,k = 3\)
\(x'=3\times(-1)=-3,y'=3\times(-1)=-3\)
Step3: Determine enlargement or reduction
Since the scale factor \(k=3> 1\), it is an enlargement.
