Question

Which transformations will produce similar, but not congruent, figures?

Answer 1

A.
Triangle TUV is dilated by a scale factor of 9 and then translated 2 units right and 1 unit down to form triangle TꞌꞌUꞌꞌVꞌꞌ.

B.
Triangle TUV is rotated 180° counterclockwise and then reflected across the x-axis to form triangle TꞌꞌUꞌꞌVꞌꞌ.

C.
Triangle TUV is rotated 270° clockwise and then translated 12 units down to form triangle TꞌꞌUꞌꞌVꞌꞌ.

D.
Triangle TUV is translated 3 units left and 4 units up and then reflected across the y-axis to form triangle TꞌꞌUꞌꞌVꞌꞌ.

Answer 9

Congruent figures are the same size and the same shape. If you dilate a figure, you either make it bigger or smaller. So A. would have to be correct. Great job :D
