MEDAL + FAN, HELP ASAP In the diagram, the circle will be dilated by a scale factor of 3 about the origin. The points C, A, and B map to C', A', and B' after the dilation. What is the length of ? Use the distance formula to help you decide: Theres a distance formula

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

need options. Question isn't clear.

OpenStudy (alexa):

5 units 15 units 21 units 24 units 45 units

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

and what is '?' in your question.

OpenStudy (triciaal):

scale factor of 3 means the radius is 3 times the radius given

OpenStudy (alexa):

ohh we have to find C'B'. We make the circle dilated by 3 then we use the distance formula to find out how long the lenght is

OpenStudy (alexa):

C'B'

OpenStudy (alexa):

is what we need to find

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

3 * sqrt ( (14-8)^2 + (13-3)^2 ) => 3*5 = 15units

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

sqrt is square root*

OpenStudy (alexa):

wow that was fast

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

it's not 14 it's 12 sorry. I wrote it wrong. Answer is right though. just change the value to 12

OpenStudy (alexa):

its ok were human, oh yea, thank you once again.

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):

and again it's 10 i wrote is 3. it's 3 * sqrt ( (12-8)^2 + (13-10)^2 ) => 3*5 = 15units

OpenStudy (princeharryyy):
