The triangle ABC has its coordinates as shown below.
, , and

Triangle ABC is translated 2 units up, 3 units left and then dilated by a scale factor of 4 about the origin to form triangle A' B' C'. What are the coordinates of the vertex B' ?



Answer :

Answer:

To find the coordinates of the vertex B' after the translation and dilation, follow these steps:

1. **Translation:** Move B left by 3 units and up by 2 units.

\[ B'(\text{{new }} x, \text{{new }} y) = (B_x - 3, B_y + 2) \]

2. **Dilation:** Dilate B' by a scale factor of 4 about the origin.

\[ B'(\text{{final }} x, \text{{final }} y) = (4 \cdot B'_x, 4 \cdot B'_y) \]

Apply these steps to the coordinates of B to find the new coordinates of B'.

If the coordinates of B are given as (x, y), the calculations would be as follows:

\[ B'(\text{{final }} x, \text{{final }} y) = (4 \cdot (B_x - 3), 4 \cdot (B_y + 2)) \]

Substitute the actual values for B_x and B_y to get the final coordinates of B'.
