The dashed triangle is the image of the solid triangle. the center of dilation is (6, 6) . what is the scale factor used to create the dilation?

The preimage is the solid triangle while the image is the dashed triangle. Recall that any transformation takes a preimage and maps it to an image. The "preimage" is the "before"; while the "image" is the "after"

Preimage ---> Image

Before ---> After

The "pre" is one way to help remember it means "before".

The preimage has a horizontal segment length of 15 units (count from x=-9 to x=6 and you should count out 15 spaces). The corresponding horizontal piece on the dashed triangle is only 3 units long. Divide the image length over the preimage length

(image length)/(preimage length) = 3/15 = 1/5 = 0.2

Now if the figure wasn't reflected over the point (6,6), then the final answer would be either 1/5 or 0.2; however, this reflection does happen so we need to make the scale factor negative. So we go from 1/5 to -1/5, and we go from 0.2 to -0.2

Final Answer as a fraction: -1/5

Final Answer in decimal form: -0.2

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
