segment AB is dilated from the origin to create segment A prime B prime at A' (0, 8) and B' (8, 12). What scale factor was segment AB dilated by?

Respuesta :

The scale factor which segment AB was dilated by is 4

How to determine the scale factor of dilation?

The graph that completes the question is added as an attachment

From the attached graph, we have the following coordinates

A = (0, 2)

B = (2, 3)

The coordinates of the image of dilation are given as:

A' = (0, 8)

B' = (8, 12)

Divide the coordinates of A' by A

So, we have:

Scale factor = A'/A

This gives

Scale factor = (0, 8)/(0, 2)

Evaluate the quotient

Scale factor = 4

Hence, the scale factor which segment AB was dilated by is 4
