I need to find the coordinates of vwxy with a scale factor of two could you please help I have tried every way.
V(6,2) W(-2,4) X(-3,-2) Y(3,-5)
just double all the numbers! So, if (vwxy) = 2(VWXY),
v = (12,4)
and so on
Thought we just did this :)
To find the coordinates of the point V' with a scale factor of 2, you can use the following steps:
1. Calculate the difference between the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of point V and point V'.
Δx = x-coordinate of V' - x-coordinate of V
Δy = y-coordinate of V' - y-coordinate of V
2. Multiply the difference by the scale factor of 2 to find the change in coordinates.
Δx' = Δx * 2
Δy' = Δy * 2
3. Add the changes in coordinates to the original coordinates of point V to find the coordinates of point V'.
x-coordinate of V' = x-coordinate of V + Δx'
y-coordinate of V' = y-coordinate of V + Δy'
Let's use this method to find the coordinates of point V' with a scale factor of 2:
1. Calculate the differences:
Δx = x-coordinate of V' - x-coordinate of V
= x' - 6
Δy = y-coordinate of V' - y-coordinate of V
= y' - 2
2. Multiply the differences by the scale factor of 2:
Δx' = Δx * 2
= (x' - 6) * 2
Δy' = Δy * 2
= (y' - 2) * 2
3. Add the changes in coordinates to the original coordinates of point V:
x-coordinate of V' = x-coordinate of V + Δx'
= 6 + (x' - 6) * 2
y-coordinate of V' = y-coordinate of V + Δy'
= 2 + (y' - 2) * 2
Now, you can substitute the given coordinates into the equations and solve them to find the coordinates of point V'.
