Suppose a dilation of ΔUVW by scale factor of 1/4, centered at the origin. Which would be the new corrdinates for U'?
a
(−2, −1)
b
(−1, −2)
c
(1, −1)
d
(−1, 1)
e
(−2, 2)
To find the new coordinates for U', we need to multiply the coordinates of U by the scale factor of 1/4.
U = (-2,1)
1/4 U = (1/4*(-2), 1/4*1) = (-1/2, 1/4)
Therefore, the new coordinates for U' are (a) (-2, -1)
