1. Dilations Learning Target: I can transform figures using dilations.

2. Dilated PowerPoint Slide
What is a Dilation?
A dilation is a transformation who preimage and image are similar. A dilation is not an isometry.
Dilation is a transformation that produces a figure similar to the original by proportionally shrinking or stretching the figure.
You are probably familiar with the term ‘dilate’ in reference to the eye doctor.
When doctors dilate your eyes, they are making the pupils larger for a better view of the back if the eye.

3. Proportionally
Let’s take a look…
And, of course, increasing the circle increases the diameter.
When a figure is dilated, it must be proportionally larger or smaller than the original.
So, we always have a circle with a certain diameter. We are just changing the size or scale.
Decreasing the size of the circle decreases the diameter.
We have a circle with a certain diameter.
Same shape, Different scale.

4. Which of these are dilations??
HINT: SAME SHAPE, DIFFERENT SIZE
Which of these are dilations?? C A B D
Discuss slides before clicking for the answer.
A is not a dilation because the milk containers are not the same shape.
B is a dilation because it is the same image, same size just a different scale or size.
C is a dilation because it is the same image, same size just a different scale or size.
D is not a dilation because the baby duck is not just a smaller replication as the mother duck since it is not the same size.

5. Scale factor > 1 0 < Scale Factor < 1 Scale Factor
If the scale factor is larger than 1, the figure is enlarged.
If the scale factor is between 1 and 0, the figure is reduced in size.
Scale factor > 1
The length of each side of the new image is equivalent to the length of the corresponding side of the original figure multiplied by the scale factor.
0 < Scale Factor < 1

6. Are the following enlarged or reduced??
Scale factor of 1.5
Discuss slides before clicking for the answer.
A is enlarged.
B is reduced.
C is enlarged.
D is reduced. D
Scale factor of 3 B
Scale factor of 0.75
Scale factor of 1/5

7. Dilations Used Everyday
World’s Largest Arcade Game – enlarged in size for fun.
Toy cars - reduced in size for play.
Large Chair – enlarged to capture attention as a furniture store sign.
Maps – reduced in sized for practicality or use.
Models – reduced in size for the sight of the overview of the building for modeling.
Large Burger – enlarged in size for fun.

9. Examples
Caution: Make sure you read the ratio sentence carefully. Image is to Pre - Image
Write the sentence as a ratio to get Scale Factor (S/F):
For this sentence:
Dashed / Solid
8 / 4 = 2 greater than 1 is an enlargement
9 / 3 = 3 greater than 1 is an enlargement
6 / 9 = 2/3 less than 1 is a reduction
8 / 4 = 2 greater than 1 is an enlargement.

10. Examples Multiply each part of the coordinate by the scale factor:
(2, 3) ; 6 multiply both x and y by 6 B’(12, 18)
6. (0, -5) ; 2/5 multiply both x and y by 2/5 A’(0, -2)

Examples
P ( 0, 4) P’ (0, 2)
E (6,6) E’ (3,3)
N (4, 0) N’(2,0)
T (0, -4) T’ (0, -2)
A(-2, 0) A’ (-1, 0)
