  • Q3
    Which of the following is not true about the dilation pictured?
    Question Image
    A'D' = .5(AD)
    A factor of 2 was applied and the figure was dilated about (0,0)
    A factor of .5 was applied and the figure was dilated about (0,0)

  • Q4
    What is the center point of this dilation? How can you tell?
    Question Image
    Point D, because it is at the origin of the graph.
    Point D, because D and D' are in the same spot. They're both at (0,0).
    Point C, because it is on the x-axis.
    Point B', because it is in line with the origin of the graph.

  • Q5
    Triangle PRQ was dilated about (0,0) by a factor of 3. Which of the following is not a true statement.
    Question Image
    You can tell the scale factor is 3, because RQ*3 = R'Q'.
    You can tell the center is (0,0), because the slope from (0,0) to P is 3 and the slope from (0,0) to P' is 9/3 = 3. AKA P and P' are on the same line!
    You can tell (0,0) is the center, because (0,0) to R is the same distance as (0,0) to R'.
    You can tell the scale factor is 3, because from (0,0) to Q' is triple the distance from (0,0) to Q.
