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′ ?

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 DD' after a dilation with respect to the origin by a scale factor of k=12k = 12, we can use the dilation formula:

(x,y)=(kx,ky)(x', y') = (k \cdot x, k \cdot y)

For vertex DD, with coordinates (2,2)(2, -2):

  1. Apply the dilation by multiplying each coordinate of DD by the scale factor 1212: x=122=24x' = 12 \cdot 2 = 24 y=12(2)=24y' = 12 \cdot (-2) = -24

  2. So, the coordinates of DD' are: D=(24,24)D' = (24, -24)

Further Questions:

  1. How would the coordinates of point AA change under the same dilation?
  2. What are the new coordinates of point BB after applying a dilation of 12?
  3. What happens to the area of the parallelogram after a dilation with this factor?
  4. What would be the coordinates of CC' after a dilation of 12?
  5. 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!
