Problem 3
Here is triangle \(ABC\).
- Draw the dilation of triangle \(ABC\) with center \((2,0)\) and scale factor 2.
- Draw the dilation of triangle \(ABC\) with center \((2,0)\) and scale factor 3.
- Draw the dilation of triangle \(ABC\) with center \((2,0)\) and scale factor \(\frac 1 2\).
- What are the coordinates of the image of point \(C\) when triangle \(ABC\) is dilated with center \((2,0)\) and scale factor \(s\)?
- Write an equation for the line containing all possible images of point \(C\).

Problem 4
Here are some line segments.
- Which segment is a dilation of \(\overline{BC}\) using \(A\) as the center of dilation and a scale factor of \(\frac23\)?
- Which segment is a dilation of \(\overline{BC}\) using \(A\) as the center of dilation and a scale factor of \(\frac32\)?
- Which segment is not a dilation of \(\overline{BC}\), and how do you know?
