Question

which choice shows ( d_{\frac{1}{1}} ) (wxyz)?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the concept of dilation

Dilation with a scale factor \(k=\frac{1}{2}\) means that each coordinate of the original figure \(WXYZ\) is multiplied by \(\frac{1}{2}\) to get the new figure \(W'X'Y'Z'\).

Step2: Analyze the position of the new figure

The new figure \(W'X'Y'Z'\) should be smaller than the original figure \(WXYZ\) and centered around the origin (assuming the dilation is centered at the origin as is common in such notation \(D_{\frac{1}{2}}\)).

Answer:

A.
