How to dilate the triangle?

To do this, we make use of the following coordinates

A = (1, 0)

B = (5, 0)

C = (1, 6)

The lengths of the triangle are calculated using

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB = \sqrt{(1-5)^2 + (0 -0)^2} = 4[/tex]

[tex]BC = \sqrt{(1-5)^2 + (6 -0)^2} = 7.2[/tex]

[tex]AC = \sqrt{(1-1)^2 + (6 -0)^2} = 5[/tex]

Using the scale factor of 2, we have the image of the dilation to be:

D = (2, 0)

E = (10, 0)

F = (2, 12)

The lengths of these sides are

DE = 8

EF = 14.4

DF = 10
