Question

I need to find the new coordinates after doing a dilation with a scale factor of 1/5? help?
S(-10, -5)
T(10, -5)
U(5, 5)
V(-5, 5)

Answer 1

Your scale factor is a 1 to 5 ration correct? So your shape's coordinates would be less than that of the original.

Answer 2

do i divide the coordinates by 5?

Answer 3

That would be the easiest way to do so.

Answer 4

thanks!

Answer 5

No problem.
