| Question 177719:  8. (traingle)ABC has coordinates (1, 1), (3, 4), and (0, -5). Write the vertices in
 matrix form.
 a. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a dilation of
 size .
 b. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a translation
 right 3 units and up 2 units.
 c. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a rotation
 of 1808.
 d. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a reflection in
 the line y = x.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! (1, 1), (3, 4), and (0, -5). :
 a) Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a dilation of
 size .
 :lets dilate by 1/2 ....so the new coordinates would be
 :(1/2,1/2),(3/2,2),(0,-5/2).......you taking 1/2 the value of x and y coordinates.
 :
 b) Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a translation
 right 3 units and up 2 units.
 :
 new coordinates (1+3,1+2),(3+3,4+2,),(0+3,-5+2)
 :.....................(4,3),(6,6),(3,-3)
 :
 c. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a rotation
 of 1808.
 :
 I assume this is 180 degree rotation which would be
 :
 (-1,-1),(-3,-4),(0,5)....you are just taking the negative values of the x and y coodinates.
 :
 d. Find the coordinates of the image of the triangle after a reflection in
 the line y = x.
 :
 (1,1),(4,3),(-5,0) remember y=x and x=y so the coordinates just change places
