To find the coordinates of the image of quadrilateral ABCD after a dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin, we multiply each coordinate of the vertices by the scale factor.

The original coordinates are:

  • A (-1, 1)
  • B (1, 2)
  • C (3, 0)
  • D (1, -1)

Now, applying the dilation:

  1. For A (-1, 1): \[ A' = (4 \cdot -1, 4 \cdot 1) = (-4, 4) \]

  2. For B (1, 2): \[ B' = (4 \cdot 1, 4 \cdot 2) = (4, 8) \]

  3. For C (3, 0): \[ C' = (4 \cdot 3, 4 \cdot 0) = (12, 0) \]

  4. For D (1, -1): \[ D' = (4 \cdot 1, 4 \cdot -1) = (4, -4) \]

Thus, the coordinates of the image of quadrilateral ABCD after dilation are:

  • A′ (-4, 4)
  • B′ (4, 8)
  • C′ (12, 0)
  • D′ (4, -4)

Final coordinates:

  • A′ (-4, 4)
  • B′ (4, 8)
  • C′ (12, 0)
  • D′ (4, -4)
