This example demonstrates the effects of dilation on polygons. Core math concepts include center of dilation, scale factor, and similar figures. It uses GeoGebra commands like Polygon for constructing polygons, objects such as points A, B, C, center t1, scale factor ScaleFactor, and transformed points A', B', C'. Suitable for high school students learning geometric transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Polygon(A, B, C) → t1, c, a, b
  2. Polygon(A', B', C') → t2, f, d_1, e
