Please Someone Help Me ?

The badge is enlarged and plotted on the coordinate grid as Figure JKLM with point J located at (-6, -8) and point M located at (-3, -2). Which of these could be the possible coordinates for vertex L? (-3, -8) (-1, -2) (2, -8) (0, -2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i forget how to do geomtery

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel what grade are you in ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im in algebra 2 ninth grade

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel Good :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what grade r u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The vertex L should be horizontal to M and if you just look at the two you can see the new shape has been blown up 3 times, so if the original had C and D separated by 1 the new one should have L separated by 3 from M and that would give you (0,-2)

OMG THANKS @christopher_miller420 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!!

Which statement about corresponding sides and angles of the two polygons is correct? The measures of angle Q and angle Q' are in the ratio 1:3. The length of side TS is equal to the length of side T'S'. The length of diagonal RT is equal to the length of diagonal R'T'. The lengths of side SR and side S'R' are in the ratio 1:3.

@christopher_miller420 CAN YOU HELP ON HOW TO DO THAT ONE ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel 10th

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can help on dis one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel OMG Thank @Aramaiel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the last one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they r proportional

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks @Aramaiel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel How do you know they are proportional ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the distance formula the transformed one is the original which is bigger by a scale factor of three

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Look at points S and S'. Point S is (0, 2). Point S' is (0, 6). What happened to the 2 of point S to become 6 of point S'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It was multiplied by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u know i am better at explaining in person oh well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Aramaiel got that

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Look at every original point and see what happened to the transformed poi9nt. For example, R becomes R'. Point R is (3, 1). Point R' is (6, 3). Notice that both coordinates were multiplied by 3. If you look at all the vertices of the transformed polygon, you will see that in every case, the coordinates are three times the original coordinates. That means the lengths of the sides of the transformed polygon are three times larger that the original lengths.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The two polygons are similar polygons. Similar polygons have congruent corresponding angles, and lengths of corresponding sides in the same ratio.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Now look at the choices and decide which one makes sense.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

FIRST ONE @Mathstudent55 ?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

No, not the first one. The first one is that the angle measures are in a ratio. Did you read what what I wrote above about the angles of similar polygons. The corresponding angles are congruent. The sides have lengths that are in the same ratio.
