Please help me with these two true or false questions? =) 1. Consider the following situation: Judy translates △ABC to △DEF such that (x,y) --> (x+3, y-2). Mike dilates △ABC to △GHI such that (x,y) --> (2/3x, 2/3y). △DEF ≅ △GHI a. False b. True 2. Consider the following situation: Mark translates △ABC to △DEF such that (x,y) --> (x+3, y-2). Michelle dilates △ABC to △GHI such that (x,y) --> (2/3x, 2/3y). △ABC ≅ △GHI a. True b. False

1a false

OpenStudy (ankit042):

Two objects are congruent if they have the same dimensions and shape. Dimensions of triangles are not matching so it should be false

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

1b false

Okie dokie! Thank you =)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So both the first and second question are false? =)

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

dilation changes the scale, but for the first condition(DEF), it's just translation

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all righty makes sense. : )

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

ABC ~= DEF, but GHI is not ~= to both triangles
