• Scale Factor (SF): the size by which an image is enlarged.
• SF can be a positive or negative, whole number or fractional number.
• Centre of Enlargement (COE): COE is the point from which the image is enlarged.
• If the COE is not given, we can draw the image anywhere.

I want you to enlarge the rectangle.
How many times bigger do you want it ?
Twice as big. That’s a Scale Factor = 2
Do you mean twice the AREA or twice the line lengths ?
You know exactly what I mean !
O.K. You mean twice the line lengths !

If I wanted to enlarge a shape by say a Scale Factor = 2 I could draw it anywhere !
I will fix the position of the ‘image’ by using a Centre of Enlargement in the same way that the position of a lens fixes the
position of an image.

Congruence and similarityIs an enlargement congruent to the
original object?
Remember, if two shapes are congruent they are the same shape and size. Corresponding lengths and angles are equal.
In an enlarged shape the corresponding angles are the same but the lengths are different. The object and its image are similar.
Reflections, rotations and translations produce images that are congruent to the original shape.
Enlargements produce images that are similar to the original shape.

Scale factors between 0 and 1What happens when the scale factor for
an enlargement is between 1 and 0?
When the scale factor is between 1 and 0, the enlargement will be smaller than the original object.
Although there is a reduction in size, the transformation is still called an enlargement.
For example,
EE’
Scale factor = 23

The centre of enlargementTo define an enlargement we must be given a scale factor and a centre of enlargement.
For example, enlarge triangle ABC by a scale factor of 2 from the centre of enlargement O.

Inverse enlargementsAn inverse enlargement maps the image that has been enlarged back onto the original object.
What is the inverse of an enlargement of 0.2 from the point (1, 3)?
In general, the inverse of an enlargement with a scale factor k is an enlargement with a scale factor from the same centre of enlargement.
1k
The inverse of an enlargement of 0.2 from the point (1, 3) is an enlargement of 5 from the point (1, 3).
