Question

triangle efg is shown below. what is the coordinate of g if triangle efg is created by dilating efg with a scale factor of 4 about the origin?
o a. g = (8, -8)
o b. g = (2, -2)
o c. g = (4, -4)
o d. g = (1, -1)

Explanation:

Step1: Find coordinate of G

From the grid, G is at $(2, -2)$.

Step2: Dilate by scale factor 4

Multiply each coordinate by 4: $2×4 = 8$, $-2×4 = -8$.

Answer:

a. G' = (8, -8)
