housing development. Your house is located at A (2,2), B (4,2), C (4,4), D (3,5), and
E (2,4).
Question 1

you a house twice the size of your current house. The new coordinates of your house
are (–4,0), (–4,4), (–2, 6), (0,4), and (0,0).
Question 5
Plot the points of the new house after a scale factor of 2 with the given coordinates.
(This is a transformation called dilation.) Use a different color to plot the points.
Name the color you use on your graph here.
