Question

Rectangle ABCD is resized with the central point $(0,0)$ and scale factor $2$
What are the coordinates of point $D$

• A. $(0,14)$
• B. $(-12,5)$
• C. $(-1,2)$
• D. $(-5,-3)$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$(-5,-3)$

In given rectangle $ABCD$:

$L=5$ units and $B=3$ units.

Now, central point of rectangle is $(0,0)$ and scale factor$=2$.

hence , the new rectangle will be $A^{\prime }{B}^{\prime }{C}^{\prime }{D}^{\prime }$, and coordinate of point $D$ is $(-5,-3)$.
