Question

The vertices of triangleABC are A(2, 1), B(4, 3), and C(6, 1). Use scalar multiplication to find the image of triangleABC after a dilation with its center at the origin and a scale factor of 2. Find the coordinates of the image.

  1. open square brackets table row 4 8 12 row 2 6 2 end table close square brackets
  2. open square brackets table row 8 8 12 row 2 6 2 end table close square brackets
  3. open square brackets table row 4 8 12 row 4 6 2 end table close square brackets
  4. open square brackets table attributes columnalign left end attributes row 4 8 12 row 2 6 12 end table close square brackets

hintHint:

Find out the co-ordinates of the image of the triangle by the multiplication of scale factor with matrix of the coordinates of the given triangle.

The correct answer is: open square brackets table row 4 8 12 row 2 6 2 end table close square brackets
