Question

A trapezoid is drawn on a grid with vertices at P (-5, 7), Q (-2, 7), R (2, 3), and S (-8, 3). Trapezoid UVWX will be drawn similar to Trapezoid PQRS with side WX corresponding to side RS. The point (8, -4) will be the location of vertex W and point (-12, -4) will be the location of point X.

What will be the coordinates of vertex V? Show all your work or explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Lol thats to much work

Answer 2

i dont understand it lol

Answer 3

similar means the look the same thell just be diffrent sizes and yu have to graph all the points out lots of work lol

Answer 4

nxt question lol

Answer 5

The scale factor from old to new trapezoid is 1 to 2. All the sides will be doubled in length. How to get the coordinate of V requires some thought. I think it would be a good idea to plot these trapezoids on graph paper.
