A triangle has the vertices A(-7, 8), B(1, -7), and C(7,6). After a dilation, the vertices of the image are A(-28, 32).
B'(4, -28), and C'(28, 24). What is the scale factor of the dilation?
A .4 b.1/4 C.8 D.2

Respuesta :

Answer: the answer is A.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation in this context is the transformation is an object into a larger one.

ABC is transformed to A'B'C'

To get the scale factor, we divide the coordinates of A'B'C' by ABC

i.e

A'/A = -28/-7, 32/8 = 4

Or

B'/B = 4/1, -28/-7 = 4

Or

C'/C = 28/7, 24/6 = 4
