It remains fixed in position and all the other vertices move towards or away from it depending on whether the scale factor is less than 1 or greater than one.

Does dilation change the shape?

Geometric dilation (size change, typically expansion) does not change the shape of a figure, or its center location, only the size.


How do you enlarge a figure on a coordinate graph?

To enlarge a figure on a coordinate graph, you can apply a dilation transformation using a scale factor. Choose a center point for the dilation, often the origin or the center of the figure, and multiply the coordinates of each vertex by the scale factor. For example, if you use a scale factor of 2, each coordinate (x, y) becomes (2x, 2y), effectively doubling the size of the figure while maintaining its shape and proportions.

What is the relationship between the vertices of a shape the scale factor and the center of dilation?

None. The vertices, the scale factor as well as the centre of dilation can each be defined independently of the other two. Each different combination will result in a different image.


What is the Vertex of a shape?

A vertex is when 2 edges meet and make a curved line.


What are verticis?

Nothing. Vertices is the plural term from vertex. A vertex is a point where two or more lines meet. They usually terminate (end) there but don't have to. In a 2- or 3-dimensional shape a vertex is a corner.
