You are using a coordinate plane to sketch out a plan for your vegetable garden. Your garden will be a rectangle 15 ft wide and 20 ft long. You want a square in the center with 3 ft sides to be reserved for flowers. If the garden is plotted on the coordinate plane with the southwest corner at the origin, what are the coordinates of the center of the flower garden?

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
