Question 9
Shape A is drawn on the grid below. Enlarge shape A with scale factor 3 and centre of enlargement (0, 0).
Step 1
Answer
To enlarge shape A, we need to multiply each coordinate of the shape by the scale factor, which is 3 in this case. The original coordinates of the vertices of shape A need to be identified first. Based on the provided grid, let's assume the vertices of shape A are at the points: (2, 2), (3, 2), (3, 3), (2, 3).
Using the formula for enlargement:
The centre of enlargement is (0, 0), thus for each vertex we calculate:
So the new coordinates after enlargement are (6, 6), (9, 6), (9, 9), and (6, 9).
Step 2
Answer
Once the new coordinates are determined, the next step is to plot these points on the grid:
Ensure to connect these points correctly to form the enlarged shape, maintaining proper geometry as observed in the original shape A.
