To find the new coordinate points of the triangle after a scale factor of 2.5 and a center of dilation at the origin, we simply multiply each coordinate by the scale factor.
Given the original coordinates:
A (-2, 1)
B (1, -3)
C (3, 2)
After scaling with a factor of 2.5, the new coordinate points will be:
A' = (-2 * 2.5, 1 * 2.5) = (-5, 2.5)
B' = (1 * 2.5, -3 * 2.5) = (2.5, -7.5)
C' = (3 * 2.5, 2 * 2.5) = (7.5, 5)
Therefore, the new coordinate points of the triangle after the scale factor of 2.5 and a center of dilation at the origin are:
A' (-5, 2.5)
B' (2.5, -7.5)
C' (7.5, 5)
