QuestionDilate FGH\triangle F G H by a scale factor of 4 with the center of dilation at the origin.
How can you use the coordinates of point FF to find the coordinates of point FF^{\prime} ?
Add 4 to each coordinate.
Subtract 4 from each coordinate.
Multiply each coordinate by 4.
Divide each coordinate by 4.

Studdy Solution
Apply the dilation rule to the coordinates of point FF:
Given the scale factor k=4k = 4, if the original coordinates of point FF are (x,y)(x, y), the coordinates of the dilated point FF' will be:
x=4x x' = 4 \cdot x y=4y y' = 4 \cdot y
Therefore, to find the coordinates of point FF', multiply each coordinate of point FF by 44.
The correct operation is to multiply each coordinate by 4.
