Q58. - Algebra 2

Question

For exercises 56-58, use the following information

The vertices of $\Delta ABC$ are $A\left(-2,1\right),B\left(1,2\right),\text{ and }C\left(2,-3\right)$. The triangle is dilated so that its perimeter is $2\frac{1}{2}$  times the original perimeter.

Graph $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta A\text{'}B\text{'}C\text{'}$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

Graph of $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta A\text{'}B\text{'}C\text{'}$ is 

Step 1 - Graph Δ A B C

Plot the vertices of $\Delta ABC$ on the graph and join them to form the triangle

Step 2 - Graph Δ A ' B ' C '

Plot the vertices of $\Delta A\text{'}B\text{'}C\text{'}$ on the graph and join them to form the triangle

Step 3 - Plot both triangles

Resultant graph of both triangles is shown below
