To determine the scale factor used by Robert for his dilation of quadrilateral JKLM to create the image J'K'L'M', we need to compare the corresponding side lengths of the original quadrilateral and the image.
Let's denote the scale factor as k. Corresponding sides: - Side JK in the original quadrilateral corresponds to side J'K' in the image.
- Side KL in the original quadrilateral corresponds to side K'L' in the image.
- Side LM in the original quadrilateral corresponds to side L'M' in the image.
- Side MJ in the original quadrilateral corresponds to side M'J' in the image.
The scale factor k can be calculated by comparing the lengths of the corresponding sides.
The scale factor k represents the factor by which the original quadrilateral has been enlarged or reduced to create the image.
By finding the ratio of the length of a side in the image to the length of the corresponding side in the original quadrilateral, we can determine the scale factor k used by Robert for the dilation. Hoped this helped.
