6. DEEPER THOUGHT - The teacher creates a dilation on the board and states that it is a scale factor of 2. Tony, an observant
student, looks at the two shapes and says "The area of the image is much bigger than 2 times bigger. Look how much area it
takes up!!!". He is actually correct. AA'C'B' does not have double the area of AACB. How much more area do you think it has?
Why?

The area of the image would be four times (2 * 2) the area of the figure.

Transformation

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, rotation, translation and dilation.

Dilation is the increase or decrease in size of a figure by a factor k. If point A(x, y) is dilated by factor k, the new point is at A'(kx, ky).

If a figure is dilated by a scale factor of 2, the new image sides would be 2 times the figure sides.

Hence the area of the image would be four times (2 * 2) the area of the figure.
