How to dilate a figure 1/2

Sagot :

The figure with given coordinates of the vertices can be dilated by factor 1/2. The dilation is done by multipliying the coordinates of the vertices by dilation factor.

So coordinates of the vertices of transformed figure is,

[tex]A(x,y)\rightarrow A^{\prime}(\frac{1}{2}\cdot x,\frac{1}{2}\cdot y)[/tex]

Answer:

For dilation of a fugure by 1/2, multiply each coordinates (x and y both) of the all vertices of figure by 1/2.
