SOLUTION: if Q(-3,4),R(-2,-1),T(3,1),W(3,5) is a quadrilateral and Q1(-27,36) is the image of Q under a dilation centered at the origin ,Find T where it says Q1 that is supposed to be 1 p

Question 1117584: if Q(-3,4),R(-2,-1),T(3,1),W(3,5) is a quadrilateral and Q1(-27,36) is the image of Q under a dilation centered at the origin ,Find T
where it says Q1 that is supposed to be 1 prime

Use the apostrophe character for the "prime". Q and Q', T and T'

In general, if

has an image under dilation about the origin, then the coordinates of that image must be

, where

is some real number.

In this case:

, hence each of the coordinates of T' must be 9 times the coordinates of T. You can do your own arithmetic.

Exactly the same idea as your question about the coordinates of W' under the same dilation. You can ask this question as often as you like, but we are not going to do your arithmetic for you.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
