the hexagon gikmpr and triangle fjn are regular. the dashed line segments form 30 degree angles what is the image of OQ after a 180 degree rotation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answer is OJ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the second part is what confuses me its what is the angle of oration about O that maps PQ to GH? O is the center

OpenStudy (dan815):

can i see a picture pls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@dan815

OpenStudy (dan815):

yep oj

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the second part?

OpenStudy (dan815):

ok`

OpenStudy (dan815):

all it wants is how many degrees to rotate and which direction to put pq where gh is

OpenStudy (dan815):

so remember 30 degrees between each pair of cashed lines about the center O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

270

OpenStudy (dan815):

dashed*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh... thought you weren't going to reply haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

240 to the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lol 270

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Explanation: There are 9 angles from PQ to GH, right? Then multiply it by 30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I say 270 over 120 because the question specifically states: what is the angle of oration about O that maps PQ to GH not GH to PQ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thank you so much i said 240 because i wasn't counting the lines but the spaces

OpenStudy (dan815):

waiy its not 270 sry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it said GH to PQ the answer would be 120.

OpenStudy (dan815):

it depends on the direction of rotation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Am I confusing you or want me to explain more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay haha thank you so much you helped so much i get it now umm not sure who to give medal to i can fan one of you? or i have another question about dilations

OpenStudy (dan815):

xD

OpenStudy (dan815):

if it said PQ is HG

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mean GH?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have a dilation problem its : The dashed triangle is a dilation image of the solod triangle with the center at the origin. Is the dilation an enlargement or reduction? find the scale factor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whattttt??

OpenStudy (dan815):

http://prntscr.com/775d2w

OpenStudy (dan815):

so 240

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ha ha Dan, you know what i meant =D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you show us the pic Interrogator?

OpenStudy (dan815):

... but its not 270 thats why i was getting confused...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i was right? its 240!

OpenStudy (dan815):

if its 120 cw then its gotta be 240 ccw

OpenStudy (dan815):

yes desiri xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yay yes i will attach the pic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are right. If you don't count the degrees from the staring angle PH then its 240 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so obviously its a reduction but the other stuff i don't know how to show my work

OpenStudy (dan815):

look at the ratio of the sides now

OpenStudy (dan815):

pick one side and see the perimeter on the big one and the small one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Quick guess: 2 is the scale factor. (2x its size)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the original side is 6 and the smaller is 2

OpenStudy (dan815):

look at the verrtical line that is easiest looks like 1.5 to 4.5

OpenStudy (dan815):

err ya 3 to 9

OpenStudy (dan815):

u can simplify further to 2:6 or 1:3

OpenStudy (dan815):

so we got 3 times bigger

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay awesome i get it the last one is you have to find the image for the dilation with the center a (0,0) while the scale factor is 4 so how would i do that?

OpenStudy (dan815):

when you scale the lengths of the sides get bigger by that factor

OpenStudy (dan815):

so your perimeter increased by 4 times, what does that mean about tour increaes in radius?

OpenStudy (dan815):

Old Radius = r Old Perimeter = 2pi*r NewRadius=? NewPerimeter=4*2pi*r what should the new radius be ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one side is 3.5 so multiplied by 4 is 14 but oh dan this isn't a triangle its and polygon

OpenStudy (dan815):

ya they all work same way so, 4 scale factor means all the side length go bigger by 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really thats all? it says find the image vertices the sides are 3.5+4=7.5 3+4=7 1.5+4=5.5 1.5+4=5.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (dan815):

wait wait wait whatt how are u getting those side lengths what are u adding xD

OpenStudy (dan815):

maybe i confused you, they got bigger by 4 timesss

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lthe spaces lol you said the side lengths not angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Back. So, the scale factor would be 4.5/1.5

OpenStudy (dan815):

xD this kid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your solving a diff problem?

OpenStudy (dan815):

ya lmao

OpenStudy (dan815):

can u help her with the last question, i g2g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i gtg. in sec brb

OpenStudy (dan815):

oh okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i take the vertices and multiply both x,y by 4

OpenStudy (dan815):

i think that should work

OpenStudy (dan815):

yeah that will definately work

OpenStudy (dan815):

by doiing that u pushed all the veritces away by 4 times, u can draw vectors from the point (0,0) to your vertices to see more clearly
