Create a scaled copy of ABCD using a scale factor of 2.

Create A Scaled Copy Of ABCD Using A Scale Factor Of 2 class=

Sagot :

The coordinates of the scaled copy of the quadrilateral ABCD using a scale factor of 2 are A'(x, y) = (1, 9), B'(x, y) = (5, 9), C'(x, y) = (3, 5) and D'(x, y) = (1, 7).

How to create a scaled copy of a quadrilateral

A picture of the original quadrilateral ABCD is attached aside and we are asked to generated a scaled copy of the quadrilateral ABCD using a scale factor of 2. First, we generate two orthogonal axes (x, y) and we assume that the center of dilation is at point A.

The coordinates of each point of the original quadrilateral are A(x, y) = (1, 9), B(x, y) = (3, 9), C(x, y) = (2, 7) and D(x, y) = (1, 8).

Second, determine the coordinates of the new quadrilateral by using the dilation formula:

P'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k · [P(x, y) - O(x, y)]          

Where:

  • k - Scale factor
  • O(x, y) - Center of dilation
  • P(x, y) - Original point
  • P'(x, y) - Dilated point

If we know that O(x, y) = (1, 9) and k = 2, then coordinates of the dilated point are:

A'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · [(1, 9) - (1, 9)]

A'(x, y) = (1, 9)

B'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · [(3, 9) - (1, 9)]

B'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · (2, 0)

B'(x, y) = (1, 9) + (4, 0)

B'(x, y) = (5, 9)

C'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · [(2, 7) - (1, 9)]

C'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · (1, - 2)

C'(x, y) = (1, 9) + (2, - 4)

C'(x, y) = (3, 5)

D'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · [(1, 8) - (1, 9)]

D'(x, y) = (1, 9) + 2 · (0, - 1)

D'(x, y) = (1, 9) + (0, - 2)

D'(x, y) = (1, 7)

The coordinates of the scaled copy of the quadrilateral ABCD using a scale factor of 2 are A'(x, y) = (1, 9), B'(x, y) = (5, 9), C'(x, y) = (3, 5) and D'(x, y) = (1, 7).
