Circle B with a radius of 5 units is shown on a coordinate grid. Circle B is dilated by a scale factor of 57, centered at the origin, to map to Circle M.Complete the statement.
Q. Circle B with a radius of 5 units is shown on a coordinate grid. Circle B is dilated by a scale factor of 57, centered at the origin, to map to Circle M.Complete the statement.
Understand effect of dilation: Understand the effect of dilation on the radius. Dilation of a circle by a scale factor will multiply the radius of the original circle by that scale factor to get the new radius.
Calculate new radius: Calculate the new radius of Circle M.The original radius of Circle B is 5 units. The scale factor for the dilation is 57. To find the new radius, multiply the original radius by the scale factor:New radius = Original radius × Scale factorNew radius =5×(57)
Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the new radius.New radius = 5×(7/5)New radius = (5/1)×(7/5)New radius = (5×7)/(1×5)New radius = 35/5New radius = 7 units
