Determine the scale factor from the point A(2, 6) of DEF to D’E’F’ where D(-8, 6), E(-8, 14), F(2, 3) (- 3, 6) and D’ (-3, 6) E’(-3, 10) and F’(2, 4.5) What is the scale factor?

The scale factor to transform DEF to D'E'F' is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

DEF is

D(-8, 6), E(-8, 14), F(2, 3)

D'(-3, 6), E'(-3, 10), F'(2, 4.5)

Therefore;

DE = √((-8-(-8))²+(6-14)²) = 8

D'E' = √((-3 -(-3))² + (6 - 10)²) = 4

Similarly,

EF = √((-8 - 2)² + (14 - 3)²) = √(100 + 121) = √221

E'F' = √((-3 - 2)² + (10 - 4.5)²) = √(100/4 + 121/4) = (√221) × 1/2

Also

DF = √(-8 - 2)² + (6 - 3)² = √(100 + 9 =√109

D'F' = √(-3 - 2)² + (6 - 4.5)² = √(5² + 3²) = √((10/2)² + (3/2)²) = √(100/4 + 9/4) = (√109)×1/2

Therefore the ratio of DEF to D'E'F' = DE/D'F' = EF/E'F' = DF/D'F' = √221/(√221) × 1/2 = 2

That is the scale factor of DEF to D'E'F'  = 1/2.
