Given a scale factor of 2, find the coordinates for the dilation of the line segment with the endpoints of (-1,2) and (3,-3).the center of the dilation is the origin.
Plzz help me
Can sum.one plz help mee
just multiply all the coordinates by 2.
Ok thxs
To find the coordinates for the dilation of the line segment, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Determine the center of the dilation
In this case, the center of the dilation is the origin (0, 0).
Step 2: Calculate the new coordinates for each point
The dilation scale factor of 2 means that each coordinate will be multiplied by 2.
For the first point (-1, 2):
- Multiply the x-coordinate by 2: -1 * 2 = -2
- Multiply the y-coordinate by 2: 2 * 2 = 4
So the new coordinates for the first point are (-2, 4).
For the second point (3, -3):
- Multiply the x-coordinate by 2: 3 * 2 = 6
- Multiply the y-coordinate by 2: -3 * 2 = -6
So the new coordinates for the second point are (6, -6).
Therefore, the dilation of the line segment with the endpoints (-1, 2) and (3, -3), with a scale factor of 2 and a center at the origin, is given by the new coordinates (-2, 4) and (6, -6).
