Math Problem Statement
Suppose the parallelogram on the coordinate plane was dilated with respect to the origin using a magnitude of 12 . What would be the coordinates of vertex D′ ?
Solution
To find the coordinates of vertex after a dilation with respect to the origin by a scale factor of , we can use the dilation formula:
For vertex , with coordinates :
-
Apply the dilation by multiplying each coordinate of by the scale factor :
-
So, the coordinates of are:

Further Questions:
- How would the coordinates of point change under the same dilation?
- What are the new coordinates of point after applying a dilation of 12?
- What happens to the area of the parallelogram after a dilation with this factor?
- What would be the coordinates of after a dilation of 12?
- How does a dilation centered at a different point affect the coordinates of each vertex?
Tip: When dilating points with respect to the origin, simply multiply each coordinate by the scale factor!
