anonymous · Answer

I don't think that those are options ;)

jhonyy9 · Answer

i think b.

anonymous · Answer

@jhonyy9  How, the coordinate numbers don't look alike or related to each other at all?

anonymous · Answer

or not...

amistre64 · Answer

congruent would be exact, barring rotation of course; so that ones out

amistre64 · Answer

notice the the rotation is 45degrees; giving us a short side of sqrt(2) as compared with a short side of 3

amistre64 · Answer

3n = sqrt(2); when n=sqrt(3)

if the long sides are sclaed by n as well its similar; otherwise its neither

amistre64 · Answer

when n=sqrt(2)/3  .... i was sure i typed that correctly :)

anonymous · Answer

oh, I thought it was C

amistre64 · Answer

does$$5*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}=3\sqrt{2}$$

anonymous · Answer

Thank you for explaining!

amistre64 · Answer

hope it helped :)  but yes, I do believe its c
