Ahas the coordinates (–4, 3) and b has the coordinates (4, 4). if do,1/2(x, y) is a dilation of △abc, what is true about the image △a'b'c'? check all that apply.
ab is parallel to a'b'.
do,1/2(x, y) = (1/2x, 1/2y)
the distance from a' to the origin is half the distance from a to the origin.
the vertices of the image are farther from the origin than those of the pre-image.
a'b' is greater than ab.

A dilation is a transformation , with center O and a scale factor of k that is not zero, that maps O to itself and any other point P to P'. The center O is a fixed point, P' is the image of P, points O, P and P' are on the same line.

In a dilation of , the scale factor, is mapping the original figure to the image in such a way that the distances from O to the vertices of the image are half the distances from O to the original figure. Also the size of the image is half the size of the original figure.

Therefore, If is a dilation of △ABC, the truth about the image △A'B'C' are:

AB is parallel to A'B'.



The distance from A' to the origin is half the distance from A to the origin.
