Dilations Activity
1. Dilate the ABC by a scale factor of two using the origin as the center of dilation.
Use the graph below to answer questions 2-3
List the coordinates of A'B'C' in the format: A'(x,y), B'(x,y), C'(x,y)
2. Which transformations transform polygon ABCD to polygon EFGD?
3. Which statement best describes polygon ABCD and polygon EFGD?
4. Dilate ABC by a scale factor of using the origin as a center of dilation and then translate using (x+3, y-1).
List the coordinates of the final image using the format: A'(x,y), B'(x,y), C'(x,y),
5. Dilate figure ABCD using point E as your center of dilation with a scale factor of 3.
Are images created by the above transformations congruent or similar? Justify your answer.
What are the new coordinate points? Use the format: A'(x,y), B'(x,y), C'(x,y), D'(x,y)
