To find the point \( Q \) such that the segment \( DQ \) is an enlargement of \( DF \) with a scale factor of 2 and \( D \) as the center of dilation, we can follow these steps:
-
Identify the coordinates of points \( D \) and \( F \):
- \( D(3, 2) \)
- \( F(8, 4) \)
-
Calculate the vector \( DF \):
- \( DF = F - D = (8 - 3, 4 - 2) = (5, 2) \)
-
Compute the coordinates of the point \( Q \) by applying the scale factor of 2 to the vector \( DF \):
- The scaled vector is \( 2 \cdot DF = 2 \cdot (5, 2) = (10, 4) \)
-
Add this scaled vector to the coordinates of point \( D \):
- \( Q = D + 2 \cdot DF = (3, 2) + (10, 4) = (3 + 10, 2 + 4) = (13, 6) \)
Thus, the coordinates of point \( Q \) are \( (13, 6) \).
The dilation \( DQ \) will be an enlargement of \( DF \) by a scale factor of 2, confirming that \( Q \) is indeed the point we were looking for.
