Answer 1

Hello i need help please

Answer 2

first figure

Answer 3

What do you mean? as in from your workings. I assume that you have to show the various transformations. Some which you have drawn is rotation, reflection and dilation (no idea there was a dilation). So do you need to draw a new figure that shows Scaling? or do you want the scale factor for the dilation figure.

Answer 4

Yes exactly

Answer 5

Yes to which question. be more clear please?

Answer 6

the scale factor of the original figure on quadrant 1

Answer 7

Firstly, do you understand what is scale factor?

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

I cant figure out how to find on this figure

Answer 10

You cant find because the question is wrong. Asking for the scale factor for the original figure doesn't make sense.

If given the original figure and the dilated figure. Then give the question: What is the scale factor? The scale factor will be based on the comparison on the 2 figures. Thus the answer is 1/2. Since the dilated figure is scaled by half as compared to the original.

So scale factor only make sense when making a sort of comparison.

Answer 11

O alright. Misinterpret

Answer 12

By the way, i am mistaken the dilated figure is not even scale 1/2. It is scaled half only in the x-direction.

Answer 13

So yea you might want to look at the question again, to see if you misread or misunderstood anything.

Answer 14

hold on

Answer 15

Answer 16

1/2 in the x-direction only.
