This transformation of the polygon ABCD to A'B'C'D' is a by a factor of 2
How to determine the scale factor?
The coordinates are given as:
- First polygon: A (3, 0), B (1, 0), C (1, 2), and D (3, 2).
- Second polygon: A' (6, 0), B'(2, 0), C'(2, 2), and D'(6, 2)
Calculate the distance AB and A'B' using:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}[/tex]
This gives
[tex]AB = \sqrt{(3-1)^2 + (0-0)^2} = 2[/tex]
[tex]A'B' = \sqrt{(6-2)^2 + (0-0)^2} = 4[/tex]
Divide A'B' by AB to determine the scale factor (k)
k = 4/2
k = 2
Hence, this transformation is a by a factor of 2
