Describe the dilation of triangle ABC, with a scale factor of 5 and a center point of dilation at the origin (0, 0).

Answer 1

The dilation of triangle ABC with a scale factor of 5 and a center point of dilation at the origin (0, 0) would result in a new triangle A'B'C' that is five times larger than the original triangle ABC. The coordinates of the vertices of triangle A'B'C' would be (0, 0), (5x, 5y), and (5u, 5v), where (x, y), (u, v) are the coordinates of the vertices of triangle ABC.
