The Parallelogram Below Is Dilated By A Scale Factor Of 12 About The Point A20 And Then Translated Seven Units To The Right What Is The Location Of R After The class=

Answer :

Given the vertices of the parallelogram:

P(-4, 3), Q(-8, 3), R(-6, 6), S(-2, 6)

Scale factor of dilation = ½

Center of dilation = A(2, 0)

To perform a dilation, all points are multiplied by the scale factor to find the new points of the dilated figure.

Given a center of dilation A(2, 0), let's ind the new points of point R:

Given: R(-6, 6)

Distance between R and center of dilation =

After a dilation of 1/2

[tex](-2,\text{ 3)}[/tex]

Translated 7 units to the right:

(x, y) ==> (x + 7, y)

(-4, 3) ==> (-2 + 7, 3) ==> (5, 3)

Therefore, the location of R after the compositipns of the transformation is:

(5, 3)
