If this rectangle is dilated using a scale factor of One-half through point B, what is the result?

Answer:

Check below

Step-by-step explanation:

That's too bad you haven't attached a rectangle.

Here's an example, with the data you've typed in.

1) When we dilate a rectangle we either grows it or shrink it through a scale factor.

Check the first picture below.

The New Dilated Rectangle A'B'C'D' will follow its coordinates, when the Center of Dilation is at its origin(Middle):

[tex]D_{A'B'C'D'}=\frac{1}{2}(x,y)[/tex]

2) But In this question, B is the center of Dilation. So, Since B is the Dilation Point B=B' .  And More importantly:

[tex]\bar{AB}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{A'B'}\\\bar{CD}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{C'D'}\\\bar{AC}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{A'C'}\\\bar{CD}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{C'D'}\\[/tex]

3) So check the pictures below for a better understanding.
