Scaling of the Dirac Delta (Impulse Function)
$ \displaystyle\delta(\alpha f)=\frac{1}{\alpha}\delta(f) $ $ \textstyle{ for }\alpha>0 $
Mini Proof
$ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(x)dx = 1 $
Let $ \displaystyle y=\alpha x $
$ dx=\frac{dy}{\alpha} $
$ \displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(\alpha x)dx=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(y)\frac{dy}{\alpha}=frac{1}{\alpha} $
