  1. Identify the coordinates of the original triangle and the center of enlargement.

    The original triangle has vertices A(−1,−1)A(-1, -1), B(−1,−4)B(-1, -4), and C(−3,−2)C(-3, -2).
    The center of enlargement is O(2,1)O(2, 1).
    The scale factor is k=2k=2.

  2. Calculate the coordinates of the enlarged triangle using the formula for enlargement.

    For a point (x,y)(x, y) enlarged from a center (xc,yc)(x_c, y_c) with a scale factor kk, the new point (x′,y′)(x', y') is given by:

    x′=xc+k(x−xc)x' = x_c + k(x - x_c) y′=yc+k(y−yc)y' = y_c + k(y - y_c)

    For point A(−1,−1)A(-1, -1):

    xA′=2+2(−1−2)=2+2(−3)=2−6=−4x_A' = 2 + 2(-1 - 2) = 2 + 2(-3) = 2 - 6 = -4 yA′=1+2(−1−1)=1+2(−2)=1−4=−3y_A' = 1 + 2(-1 - 1) = 1 + 2(-2) = 1 - 4 = -3

    So, A′=(−4,−3)A' = (-4, -3).

    For point B(−1,−4)B(-1, -4):

    xB′=2+2(−1−2)=2+2(−3)=2−6=−4x_B' = 2 + 2(-1 - 2) = 2 + 2(-3) = 2 - 6 = -4 yB′=1+2(−4−1)=1+2(−5)=1−10=−9y_B' = 1 + 2(-4 - 1) = 1 + 2(-5) = 1 - 10 = -9

    So, B′=(−4,−9)B' = (-4, -9).

    For point C(−3,−2)C(-3, -2):

    xC′=2+2(−3−2)=2+2(−5)=2−10=−8x_C' = 2 + 2(-3 - 2) = 2 + 2(-5) = 2 - 10 = -8 yC′=1+2(−2−1)=1+2(−3)=1−6=−5y_C' = 1 + 2(-2 - 1) = 1 + 2(-3) = 1 - 6 = -5

    So, C′=(−8,−5)C' = (-8, -5).

    The coordinates of the enlarged triangle are A′(−4,−3)A'(-4, -3), B′(−4,−9)B'(-4, -9), and C′(−8,−5)C'(-8, -5).

  3. Draw the triangles on the Cartesian plane.

    • Draw the x-axis and y-axis on the grid provided.
    • Plot the center of enlargement O(2,1)O(2, 1).
    • Plot the vertices of the original triangle: A(−1,−1)A(-1, -1), B(−1,−4)B(-1, -4), and C(−3,−2)C(-3, -2). Connect these points to form triangle ABC.
    • Plot the vertices of the enlarged triangle: A′(−4,−3)A'(-4, -3), B′(−4,−9)B'(-4, -9), and C′(−8,−5)C'(-8, -5). Connect these points to form triangle A'B'C'.

    The coordinates of the original triangle are:
    A=(−1,−1)A = (-1, -1)
    B=(−1,−4)B = (-1, -4)
    C=(−3,−2)C = (-3, -2)

    The coordinates of the enlarged triangle are:
    A′=(−4,−3)A' = (-4, -3)
    B′=(−4,−9)B' = (-4, -9)
    C′=(−8,−5)C' = (-8, -5)

    The center of enlargement is O=(2,1)O = (2, 1).
