Exploring Dilation in the Coordinate Plane

What is the scale factor if a shape increases in size after dilation?

• Greater than 1

• Equal to 1

• Less than 1

• Cannot be determined

How do you find the coordinates of a dilated shape?

• Subtract the original coordinates

• Divide the original coordinates

• Multiply the original coordinates by the scale factor

• None of the above

What happens to the coordinates of a shape after dilation with a scale factor greater than 1?

• They become zero

• They decrease

• They remain the same

• They increase

If the original point of a shape is at (2, 1) and the scale factor is 3, what is the new point after dilation?

• (5, 4)

• (2, 1)

• (8, 3)

• (6, 3)

For a quadrilateral dilation with a scale factor of 1.5, what is the new coordinate if the original was (1, 4)?

• (0.5, 2)

• (1, 4)

• (2, 8)

• (1.5, 6)

What is the result of dilating a shape with a scale factor of 1?

• The shape remains unchanged

• The shape reduces

• The shape enlarges

• The shape disappears

If a quadrilateral's vertex at E is (-4, -2) and the scale factor for dilation is 1.5, what is E'?

• (-2, -1)

• (2, 1)

• (-6, -3)

• (6, 3)

What characteristic do the original shape and its image share after dilation?

• Weight

• Texture

• Color

• Similarity

How does the scale factor affect the size of the dilated image?

• It has no effect

• It decreases the size

• It increases the size if greater than 1

• It changes the color

What is the new coordinate of H' if H is at (0, -4) and the scale factor is 1.5?

• (0, -6)

• (0, -2)

• (1.5, -6)

• (0, 6)
