To find the new coordinates after a dilation with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin, we need to multiply the original coordinates of each point by 1/3.
Let's assume the original coordinates of the point B are (x, y).
After the dilation, the new coordinates of point B would be (x/3, y/3).
Similarly, the new coordinates of point D would also be (x/3, y/3) if it has the same coordinates as point B.
So, the coordinates of both point B and point D after the dilation with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin would be (x/3, y/3).
Write the coordinates of the vertices after a dilation with a scale factor of centered at the origin. 3
