A dilation is a transformation in which a figure is enlarged or reduced with respect to a fixed point C called the center of dilation and a scale factor k , which is the ratio of the lengths of the corresponding sides of the image and the preimage. A dilation with center of dilation C and scale factor k maps every point P in a fi gure to a point P ′ so that the following are true.

210 Chapter 4 Transformations In the coordinate plane, you can have scale factors that are negative numbers. When this occurs, the figure rotates 180°. So, when k > 0, a dilation with a scale factor of − k is the same as the composition of a dilation with a scale factor of k followed by a rotation of 180° about the center of dilation. Using the coordinate rules for a dilation and a rotation of 180°, you can think of the notation as ( x , y ) → ( kx , ky ) → (− kx , − ky ).

You are making your own photo stickers. Your photo is 4 inches by 4 inches. The image on the stickers is 1.1 inches by 1.1 inches. What is the scale factor of this dilation?
The scale factor is the ratio of a side length of the sticker image to a side length of the original photo, or 1.1 in. — 4 in.
So, in simplest form, the scale factor is

You are using a magnifying glass that shows the image of an object that is six times the object’s actual size. Determine the length of the image of the spider seen through the magnifying glass.
image length —— actual length = k —^ x
x = 9 So, the image length through the magnifying glass is 9 centimeters. MMonitoring Progressonitoring Progress Help in English and Spanish at BigIdeasMath.com
6. An optometrist dilates the pupils of a patient’s eyes to get a better look at the back of the eyes. A pupil dilates from 4.5 millimeters to 8 millimeters. What is the scale factor of this dilation? 7. The image of a spider seen through the magnifying glass in Example 6 is shown at the left. Find the actual length of the spider. When a transformation, such as a dilation, changes the shape or size of a figure, the transformation is nonrigid. In addition to dilations, there are many possible nonrigid transformations. Two examples are shown below. It is important to pay close attention to whether a nonrigid transformation preserves lengths and angle measures.
