Triangle ABC will be dilated according to the rule , where point F is the center of dilation.

What will be the coordinates of vertex A' of the image?

a. (-8,-4)

b. (-2,-1)

c. (0, 0)

d. (1, 0)

The answer is (1,0), but could someone explain how you get it, please?

Usually dilations have a center of dilation at the origin (0,0). When this occurs all we need to do is multiply each coordinate by the dilation scale. Unfortunately things get a little more complicated when the center of dilation is not at the origin.

In this case the center of dilation is located at F: (3,1)

The first step we must take is to find how many units point F is from vertex A.

In this case, F is 4 unit up and 8 units right of vertex A. (Reference the first image below to see how I found this)

Now we must multiply these dimensions (4 units and 8 units) by the factor of dilation (0.25)

4 * 0.25 = 1

8 * 0.25 = 2

This shows us how many dimensions away point is from point F:

1 unit vertically

2 units horizontally

Now how do we know if is above or below, left or right from point F? Easy! There has been no translations so the directions will be the same as the original:

Point F: (3, 1) ---> (3-2, 1-1) ---> (1, 0)

Reference the second image to see this

Hopefully this helps and makes sense. Let me know if you need further explanation or clarification.

idk

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is (4,3)

since the rule for r0, 90º is (-y,x) and it was already applied to form the image, all you have to do is reverse the answer using this formula.
