What else can I help you with?
Do multiplying the coordinates of a shape affect the shape?
Yes, the result is an enlargement or shrinking, with the origin as centre of enlargement.
What is the definition of enlargement in math terms?
An enlargement is of one shape is another, similar shape whose dimensions are bigger.
What information do you need to complete a given enlargement?
You need the original shape, the scale of enlargement and the centre of enlargement.
What information do you need to complete a given shape enlargement?
The scale or enlargement factor.
What does enlargement mean in maths terms?
An enlargement is a transformation which changes the size of an object without changing its shape, rather as a projector enlarges the details of a photographic slide onto a screen.
What is an enlargement with a negative scale factor?
It is a smaller shape on the other side of the centre of enlargement.
The difference between rotation and enlargement?
Rotation and enlargement are two distinct transformations in geometry. Rotation involves turning a shape around a fixed point, called the center of rotation, while maintaining its size and shape. Enlargement, on the other hand, increases the size of a shape while preserving its proportions, typically done from a specific center of enlargement. In summary, rotation changes the orientation of a shape, whereas enlargement changes its scale.
What does center of enlargement mean?
The center of enlargement is a specific point in geometry from which a shape or object is enlarged or reduced in size. This point serves as a reference, and all other points of the shape move away from or toward this center by a specific scale factor. When the shape is enlarged, the distances between the center and the points of the shape increase proportionally, maintaining the shape's proportions. Conversely, when reducing the shape, the distances decrease proportionally.
What is a transformation that changes the size of the figure but not the shape?
It is an enlargement
What is a geometry enlargement?
It is the transformation of a shape on the Cartesian plane
What is a self similar shape?
A shape is said to be self-similar if it will map onto an enlargement of a part of itself.
What is the definition of enlargement in math?
It is when u are making a shape bigger by its centre
