Centre of enlargement The centre of enlargement gives the position from which the enlargement will take place When we blow up a balloon the centre of enlargement would be from the spout where the gas was entering If we shine a light at an object so that its shadow appeared on a wall. The shadow would be an enlargement of the original figure and the light source would be the centre of enlargement.

Centre of enlargement – Positive scale factor less than 1 When the scale factor is less than 1 then the enlargement appears between the centre of enlargement and the original shape. The drawing will show original shape, enlarged shape and centre of enlargement in that order. We still call it an enlargement although it is smaller.

Centre of enlargement – Positive scale factor less than 1 Draw lines from the vertices of the original shape to the centre of enlargement. The length from the centre of enlargement to the original shape is multiplied by the scale factor to determine the vertices of the enlarged shape. The position of the new shape is always measured from the centre of enlargement.

Complete the paragraph using the words below The centre of enlargement is a point from which a shape is enlarged. Positive scale factors --------- --------- one produce shapes that are larger than the original shape so that the centre of enlargement, original shape and --------- shape appear in that order. Negative --------- --------- less than minus one produce enlarged shapes that appear rotated. Scale factors less than one produce smaller enlargements although we still call them enlargements. To find the --------- -- --------- we draw lines through the corresponding --------- of the shapes. The coordinates where these --------- meet is the centre of enlargement.
