Question

Question #18: * Triangle ABC has vertices A(6,6), B(9,0), and C(3,-3). State and label the coordinates of the triangle A'B'C', the image of ABC after a dilation of D 1/3

Answer 1

The coordinates of A', B' and C' after the dilation can be obtained by multiplying each coordinate by 1/3, then

$\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}(2,2) \\ B^{\prime}(3,0) \\ C^{\prime}(1,-1) \end{gathered}$
