Question

The figure below is dilated with the center of dilation at the origin and a scale factor of 1/2. What are the coordinates of the image of point C after this transformation? (_, _)

Answer 1

I can't see the figure. For a dilation centered at the origin with scale factor 1/2, multiply each coordinate by 1/2. So if the original C = (x, y), the image C' = (x/2, y/2).

If you tell me the original coordinates of C (for example C = (6, 4)), I can give the numeric image (for that example C' = (3, 2)).
