Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows a rectangular figure on a coordinate plane, and the problem asks for the coordinates of the vertices after a dilation with a scale factor of 5 about the origin. Let's proceed with solving the problem step by step.
Step 1: Identify the current coordinates of the vertices
From the image, the coordinates of the vertices appear to be:
Step 2: Apply the dilation formula
The formula for dilation about the origin with a scale factor is: Given the scale factor , we will multiply each vertex's coordinates by 5.
Step 3: Find the new coordinates after dilation

Would you like further details or have any questions? Here are some related questions to practice:
- What happens to the area of the figure after the dilation with a scale factor of 5?
- How would the coordinates change if the scale factor was instead of 5?
- How do you determine the center of dilation from a transformation?
- How would a translation affect the dilated image?
- What would be the result of applying a reflection after dilation?
Tip: Dilation enlarges or reduces the size of a figure, but preserves its shape and orientation if the scale factor is positive.
