Find the coordinates of the vertices of the figures after the transformation

Question

(A) -8, 8 (B) 8,8 (D) -4, -8 (C) 8, -4

Dilate about the origin with a scale factor of 1/4

Answer 1

Hey Hunter. This question is fortunately pretty straight forward: multiply ALL the coordinates by the scale factor, here 1/4 (fyi, multiplying by 1/4 is the same as dividing by 4), and that will give you your new coordinates. That's it. I hope that helps.
