Understanding Dilations: Graphing, Scale Factors, and Similar Polygons in FLEX Wednesday Class

Join us for FLEX Wednesday as we explore the concept of dilations in mathematics. We will determine whether polygons are similar and focus on graphing dilations on a coordinate plane. Key vocabulary includes dilation, center, and scale factor. Learn to calculate new coordinates by applying scale factors, and complete your understanding with hands-on graphing exercises. Don't forget your homework from pages 228-229! Let's deepen our knowledge of geometric transformations together!

  1. Materials Reminders

  2. Get out your agenda if you see your name below. I would like to have you in my FLEX Wednesday.

  3. Musical Math Determine whether the following polygons are similar. 4 4 6 6 2 3

  4. Cornell Notes Topic: 4-7 Dilations Essential Question(s): How do I graph dilations on a coordinate plane?

  5. Important Vocabulary Dilation– the image produced by enlarging or reducing a figure Center– a fixed point used for measurement when altering the size of an image

  6. Questions: Notes: Cornell Notes How do I find the coordinates for a new, dilated figure? Complete the following table by substituting the scale factor for the variable, a. hint: just multiply all of the coordinates by the scale factor

  7. Drawing Dilations • Use the provided graph paper to draw dilations of the provided figures.

  8. Graphing Dilations • Use the provided graph paper to draw dilations of the provided figures.

  9. Questions: Notes: Cornell Notes How do I find and classify a scale factor? Steps Write a ratio of the x or y-coordinate of one vertex of the dilation (NEW figure) to the x or y-coordinate of the original (OLD) figure. Example: The Scale Factor is 3 If the scale factor is greater than one the dilation is and ENLARGEMENT If the scale factor is less than one the dilation is a REDUCTION
