Congruence Transformations: Dilations Practice

Point C is located at (4, -1) and is dilated by a scale factor of 2. What are the new coordinates of Point C?

• (2, -0.5)

• (8, -2)

• (-2, 0.5)

• (-8, 2)

Point K is located at (-3, 6). If it is dilated by a scale factor of 1/3, what will the new coordinates of Point K be? Do not put any spaces in your answer.

If a point is dilated by a scale factor of 4, what specific TYPE of dilation is that? Keep your answer in all lowercase.

If a point is dilated by a scale factor of 1/4, what specific TYPE of dilation is occurring? Use all lowercase in your answer.

Point L was located in the coordinate plane at (1.5, 4.5). Point L is dilated and ends up at (4.5, 13.5). Select all of the following true statements.

• This is an enlargement.

• This is a reduction.

• The scale factor is 1/3.

• The scale factor is 3.
