In this worksheet, students will explore using column vectors to enlarge shapes from a centre of enlargement, particularly focusing on negative scale factors. This method allows pupils to accurately transform shapes.

Section A provides a reminder of scaling column vectors, describing their movement, and practice writing column vectors.

In Section B, learners will enlarge shapes from given centres of enlargement using specified scale factors. Students will write column vectors to show the distance from the centre of enlargement to each vertex and multiply vectors by the scale factor to find the vertices of the image.

The worksheet includes 6 enlargements with scale factors, including positive and negative integers and fractions.
