Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A triangle has vertices A(3, 6), B(6, 8), and C(5, 4). Calculate the new vertices after a dilation of scale factor 1.5 from the point (0, 0).
💡 Hint: Multiply each coordinate by the scale factor 1.5.
If you have a rectangle with vertices (1,2), (4,2), (4,5), and (1,5), what will be the coordinates after applying a dilation of -2 from the origin?
💡 Hint: Remember to multiply by -2 and consider how each point moves.
