1) What are the coordinates of the image of (2, 5)

after a counterclockwise rotation of 90 about the origin?
1) (2, 5)
2) (2, 5)
3) (5, 2)
4) (5, 2)

A dilation is a used to create an image that is larger

or smaller than the original. If the new image is
larger, it is called an enlargement. If the new image
is smaller than the original, it is a reduction.
Also, the original figure and its dilation are
always similar figures.

The scale factor of a dilation determines its size. If the scale

factor is greater than one, the dilation is an enlargement. If the
scale factor is less than one, the dilation will be a reduction.

Reduction- a dilation with 0 < k < 1

Enlargement- a dilation with k > 1
K represents the scale factor
(x, y) = (kx, ky)

During dilations, there are some properties that remain

the same throughout.
1. Angle measures
2. Parallelism (line that are parallel remain parallel)
3. Colinearity (points remain on the same line)
4. Midpoints
5. Orientation (order of the letters)

However, one thing that DOES change during dilations,

is isometry. A line segment will not stay the same
length in all cases, unless the scale factor is one.

 On the accompanying grid, graph and label quadrilateral ABCD, whose coordinates
are A(-1,3) B(2,0) C2,-1) and D(-3,-1). Graph, label, and state the coordinates of
A`B`C`D`, the image of ABCD under a dilation of 2, where the center of dilation is
the origin.

(-2,-10)

In which quadrant would the image of point (1,-2) fall after a dilation using a factor
of -3?

B) II
C) III

When a dilation is performed on a hexagon, which property of the hexagon will not
be preserved in its image?
(1) parallelism
(2) orientation

(3) length of sides

(4) measure of angles

 Using a drawing program, a computer graphics designer constructs a circle

on a coordinate plane on her computer screen. She determines that the
equation of the circles graph is (x-3)+(y+2) =36. She then dilates the
circle with the dilation
After this transformation, what is the center of the
new circle?
A. (6,-5)
B. (-6,5)
C. (9,-6)
D. (-9,6)

There are two different types of symmetry: line symmetry and

rotational symmetry.
Line symmetry, or reflection symmetry, is if the figure can be
reflected onto itself by a line.

Rotational symmetry, or radial symmetry is if the figure can be

mapped onto itself by a rotation that is greater than 0 and less
than 360. The number of times a figure can map onto itself is the
order of symmetry. The magnitude of symmetry is the smallest
angle that a figure can rotate to map onto itself. To calculate the
magnitude of symmetry: m = 360 (n is number of sides)

Line Symmetry

Each figure has line symmetry because they can be mapped

onto themselves over a single line.

Rotational Symmetry

 State whether the following figure has reflectional symmetry, rotational symmetry,
both kinds of symmetry, or neither kind of symmetry.
Vertical, horizontal, and
diagonal reflectional
symmetry, and rotational
symmetry

 Line Symmetry (Reflection Symmetry)- divides the figure into two

congruent halves.

Angle of Rotational Symmetry- The smallest angle through which the

figure is rotated to coincide with itself.
Order of Rotational Symmetry- the number of times that you can get
an identical figure when repeating the degree of rotation.
Order of Symmetry- number of times a figure maps onto itself as it
rotates from 0 to 360

Dilation-creates an image that is larger or smaller than the original.

Smaller image-reduction has occurred with a dilation with 0 < k< 1
Larger image-Enlargement is a dilation with k >1 >
Scale Factor-determine its size K represents the scale factor Dk (x,y) =
(kx,ky)

Properties preserved under dilation:

1. Angle measures (remain the same)
2. Colinearity (points stay on the same lines)
3. Midpoint (midpoints remain the same in each)
4. Parallelism (parallel lines remain parallel)
5. Orientation (lettering order remains the same)
6. Distance is NOT preserved (lengths of segments are NOT the same in all
cases except scale factor or 1.)
