A triangle has vertices A(0,0), B(8,0), C(3,-2). Find the coordinates of the triangle after a dilation with a scale factor of  4. The dilation is (X,Y) --- (4x,4y)

• A(3,3), B(4,4), C(-3,-4)
• A(-4,8), B(6.5,8), C(7,7)
• A(0,0), B(32,0), C(12,-8)

A triangle has vertices with coordinates (2,0), (3, -1) and (-2,-5). If the triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 3 with the origin as the center of dilation, what are the coordinates of the vertices of the image?

• (5,3), (6,2), (1,-2)
• (6,0), (9,-3), (-6,-15)
• (2/3,0), (1,-1/3), (-2/3,-5/3)
• (-1,-3), (0,-4), (-5,-8)

(x, y) -> (2x, 2y) 
What is the coefficient 2 mean?

• plot 2 to the right and 2 up
• scale factor is 2 creating a new figure half the size
• scale factor is 2 making a figure twice the 
  original
• I don't understand this question : (

A scale factor of less than one means

• that the prime image will be larger than the pre-image.
• That the prime image will be the same as the preimage.
• That you need to subtract that amount off  of each side.
• That the prime image will be a reduction of the preimage.

If the scale factor is greater than one, the new figure will be

• a reduction
• an enlargement
• a scale
• not proportional
