Geometric Transformations Dilations & Reductions
Definitions • Dilation: transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but a different size • Enlargement: image bigger than the preimage • Reduction: image smaller than the preimage • Scale factor: how much the preimage changes • Center of dilation: self explanatory—the center of the preimage/image
Example Draw the dilation of ∆ABC with vertices A(-1,-1), B(0,2), C(1,-2), with the center of dilation at the origin and a scale factor of 3.
Example Draw the dilation of ∆EFG with vertices E(0,0), F(0,6), G(8,0), center of dilation at E, and scale factor of ½ .
Example Draw ABCD: A(1,1), B(5,1), C(1,5), D(5,5) Dilate by a scale factor of ½. Translate 3 up, 4 left. Reflect over the y-axis.
Example Draw JKLM: J(2,-2), K(1,1), L(-2,-3), M(0,-5) Reflect over the y-axis. Rotate 180 degrees around the origin.
