Dilations: write the rule
This worksheet focuses on writing dilation rules in coordinate geometry, challenging students to interpret scale factors and centers of dilation. Teachers can use it to reinforce understanding of geometric transformations and to practice translating visual dilations into algebraic expressions. Ideal for high school geometry classes, it supports skill development in transformations and dilation concepts.
Learning objectives
- Identify the scale factor and center of dilation from given figures
- Write the algebraic rule representing the dilation transformation
