Answer:
The coordinates of ABC are respectively (-2,2), (-2,3), and (1,2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Dilation About the Origin
Given a point P(x,y), its dilation about the origin by a scale factor of k maps the point to a point P'(kx,ky).
If we are given the dilated point, then we can find the original point by dividing by the scale factor.
Triangle ABC was dilated by a scale factor of 2 about the origin mapping it to triangle A'B'C' with vertices A'(-4,4), B'(-4,6), and C(2,4).
The coordinates of triangle ABC are:
A=(-4/2,4/2) = (-2,2)
B=(-4/2,6/2) = (-2,3)
C=(2/2,4/2) = (1,2)
The coordinates of ABC are respectively (-2,2), (-2,3), and (1,2).
