Question

triangle abc is dilated by a scale factor of 3 to create triangle abc. what are the coordinates of c? (15, 6) (6, 15) (-9, 9) (5, 8)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates of C

From the graph, the coordinates of point C are (2, 5).

Step2: Apply dilation rule

When dilating a point (x, y) by a scale factor k, the new - point (x', y') has coordinates (kx, ky). Here k = 3, x = 2, and y = 5. So x'=3×2 = 6 and y'=3×5 = 15.

Answer:

(6, 15)
