Quadrilateral LMNP has sides measuring 16,28,12 and 32 what could be the side lengths of a dilation of LMNP

Respuesta :

Answer: 8, 14, 6, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is when you increase, or decrease all the side lengths of a figure in a same ratio. In other words, it simply means shrinking or magnifying a figure.

So quadrilateral LMNP has side lengths 16, 28, 12 and 32.

If you decrease these values by the ratio 1/2, i.e. multiply these lengths by 1/2, you get 1 dilation.

That is, 16.1/2 = 8, 28.1/2= 14, 12.1/2= 6 and 32.1/2 = 16.

So 1 possible dilation is 8, 14, 6, 16. Some others are 24, 42, 18, 48 and 32, 56,24 , 64 etc etc.

Hope this helped you :)
