ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 3 with the origin as the center of dilation to form ΔA′B′C′. The slope of AB is -1.2. The length of AB is p units, the length of AC is q units, and the length of BC is r units.
The slope of A′B′ is 1.2 or -1.2 or -3.6? The length of A′C′ is 1/3 q or 3 q or -1.2 p or (p + q + r) units?

you need to find the slopes of the dilated figure?

will.h · Answer

The slopes of the dilated figure is congruent to the slope of the original figure.

ok so A'B' is -1.2?

will.h · Answer

yes

09h8822332e43 · Answer

thx but then what is the length of A'C'?

will.h · Answer

length of AC is 3q since the scale factor is 3.
