Dilations of everyday occurrences You are probably familiar with the word "dilate" as it relates to the eye. The pupil of the eye dilates (gets larger or smaller) depending upon the amount of light striking the eye. Aim: What Happens When We Enlarge Or Decrease The Size Of An Object?

Dilations that occur in transformational geometry • The description of a dilation includes the scale factor and the center of the dilation. • A dilation of scalar factor k whose center of dilation is the originmay be written: Dk(x,y) = (kx,ky).

Dilations that occur in transformational geometry If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement.If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction. Aim: What Happens When We Enlarge Or Decrease The Size Of An Object?

Standards Standard MST3: Mathematics (1997) Performance Indicator MST3.C.OP3.MB.C: Students use transformations on figures and functions in the coordinate plane. Standard MST3: Mathematics (2005) Performance Indicator MST3.IG.GE8.58: Students define, investigate, justify, and apply similarities (dilations and the composition of dilations and isometries).
