Circle A has center of (0, 4) and a radius of 6, and circle B has a center of (-3, 5) and a radius of 24. What steps will help show that circle A is similar to circle B? Translate circle A using the rule (x+3, y−1). Rotate circle A 180° about the center. Dilate circle A by a scale factor of 4. <--? Reflect circle A over the line y=x.

You are right C is the answer. By dilating the circle by a scale factor of 4 you get the radius of the new circle to be 24. Since dilating makes similar shaped then A and B are similar
