GEOMETRY: Find the vertices of the quadrilateral after a dilation with scale factor 2.5.?
5 answers
Quadrilateral ABCD has vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 3), C(5, 3), and D(5, 0). Find the vertices of the quadrilateral after a dilation with scale factor 2.5.

A) or first option Assuming dilation about the origin, but from cursory inspection, that is the only possibility.

Just multiply every coordinate by 2.5 0 * 2.5 = 0 3 * 2.5 = 7.5 5 * 2.5 = 12.5 A(0, 0) --> A'(0,0) B(0, 3) --> B'(0, 7.5) C(5, 3) --> C'(12.5, 7.5) D(5, 0) --> D'(12.5, 0) Answer: A)

A1(0,0) ; B1(0,7.5) ; C1( 12.5 , 7.5) ; D1( 12.5 , 0 )

Answer is option A Multiply each vertex by 2.5 A' = (0, 0), B' = (0, 7.5) C' = (12.5, 7.5), D' = (12.5, 0)
