Dilations: Graph the image
Copy polygon ABCD shown on graph paper. Then draw the image of the figure after a dilation with center A by a scale factor of 2. |
|
 |
Step 1. |
Draw a ray AB, extending it to the edges of the grid. |
Step 2. |
Use a ruler to locate point B' on ray AB such that AB'=2(AB). |
Step 3. |
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for points C' and D'. Then draw polygon A'B'C'D' where A=A' |

Copy polygon PQRS shown on graph paper. Then draw the image of the figure after a dilation with center S by a scale factor of . |
|
 |
Step 1. |
Draw a ray SP, extending it to the edges of the grid. |
Step 2. |
Use a ruler to locate point P' on ray SP such that SP'=. |
Step 3. |
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for points R' and Q'. Then draw polygon P'Q'R'S' where S=S' |
