Find the dilation of 0.25 with the center (0,0) for the following points :A (0,-3) B (0,2)
To find the dilation of a point with respect to a center and a scale factor, we need to multiply the coordinates of the point by the scale factor.
The scale factor in this case is 0.25. So, for point A(0, -3):
x-coordinate of A after dilation = 0 * 0.25 = 0
y-coordinate of A after dilation = -3 * 0.25 = -0.75
Therefore, after dilation, point A becomes A'(0, -0.75).
Similarly, for point B(0, 2):
x-coordinate of B after dilation = 0 * 0.25 = 0
y-coordinate of B after dilation = 2 * 0.25 = 0.5
After dilation, point B becomes B'(0, 0.5).
