P'(4.5, 1), Q'(3.5, 0), R'(2, 2.5), S'(4, 2.5)
Step-by-step solution
4 stepsLet's enlarge this quadrilateral!
Identify the coordinates of the original quadrilateral PQRS.
From the graph, the coordinates are:
The center of enlargement is and the scale factor is .
Apply the enlargement formula to each vertex.
The formula for enlargement with center and scale factor is .
Here, and .-
For P : So,
-
For Q : So,
-
For R : So,
-
For S : So,
-
List the coordinates of the enlarged quadrilateral P'Q'R'S'.
The new coordinates are:
Draw the quadrilateral P'Q'R'S'.
To draw the quadrilateral, plot the points , , , and on the same graph paper. Then, connect the points in order: to , to , to , and to .
The coordinates of the enlarged quadrilateral are .
