Dilation of a segment summary
s r u
(a) Given the dilation D
, line segment PQ, and O is not on PQ
, what can we conclude about the image of PQ ?
O,3/2
(b) Given figures A and B below, BA P DC , UV P XY , UV ≅ XY , determine which figure has a dilation mapping the
parallel line segments and locate the center of dilation O. For one of the figures, a dilation does not exist. Explain why.
