Exploring Algebraic Representations of Dilations

This video tutorial covers the concept of dilations using algebraic expressions, focusing on enlargements and reductions with the center of dilation at the origin. It explains how to use scale factors to determine the size change of figures and provides examples of both enlargement and reduction. The tutorial also includes graphing instructions and practice problems to reinforce learning.

What happens when the scale factor is greater than one?

• The scale factor has no effect.

• The figure undergoes an enlargement.

• The figure undergoes a reduction.

• The figure remains unchanged.

How does a scale factor of 1 affect the figure?

• It causes an enlargement.

• It rotates the figure.

• It causes a reduction.

• It leaves the figure unchanged.
