Question

Select the coordinates A' and B' after dilation of the line segment AB with a scale factor of 1/3 centered at the origin where the endpoints are A(- 6, 3) and B(- 12, 9) (1 point) A' * (- 6, 3); B' * (- 4, 3); A^ * (- 2, 1); B' * (- 4, 3); A' * (- 18, 9) and B' * (- 36, 27); A' * (- 2, 1) and B' * (- 12, 9)

Answer 1

To find the coordinates A' and B' after dilation of the line segment AB with a scale factor of 1/3 centered at the origin, we can use the following formula:

A' = (1/3) * (Ax, Ay)
B' = (1/3) * (Bx, By)

Given points A(-6, 3) and B(-12, 9)

A' = (1/3) * (-6, 3) = (-2, 1)
B' = (1/3) * (-12, 9) = (-4, 3)

Therefore, the coordinates of A' are (-2, 1) and the coordinates of B' are (-4, 3).
