Parallelogram JKLM has coordinates J (−8, 16), K (8, 16), L (16, −8), and M (0, −8). Parallelogram JꞌKꞌLꞌMꞌ has coordinates Jꞌ (−1, 2), Kꞌ (1, 2), Lꞌ (2, −1), and Mꞌ (0, −1). Parallelogram JꞌꞌKꞌꞌLꞌꞌMꞌꞌ has coordinates Jꞌꞌ (3, 2), Kꞌꞌ (5, 2), Lꞌꞌ (6, −1), and Mꞌꞌ (4, −1). Which transformations describe why parallelograms JKLM and JꞌꞌKꞌꞌLꞌꞌMꞌꞌ are similar?
woah
A. Parallelogram JKLM was reflected across the y-axis and then dilated by a scale factor of 1/8 . B. Parallelogram JKLM was dilated by a scale factor of 1/4 and then translated 1 unit right and 2 units down. C. Parallelogram JKLM was rotated 270° clockwise and then dilated by a scale factor of 1/4 . D. Parallelogram JKLM was dilated by a scale factor of 1/8 and then translated 4 units to the right.
well.what do u think?
C
@chosenmatt
good job
C is the wrong answer.
then what is it?
D Multiply the coordinates for points JKLM by 1/8, and will get the coordinates for J'K'L'M'. For example, the J coordinate is (-8,16). So multiply 8 times 1/8 and you get 1. Multiply 16 by 1/8 and you get 2. So J' is (-1,2) Next move the x coordinates for J'K'L'M' to the right 4 units and you will get J"K"L"M" So for J' you add 4 to the x coordinate. So -1+4=3 So J" coordinate is (3,2)
marshallinwashington is correct take it from me had this same question
yea
yea give me like 3 mins
ok
