Question

Circle A has center of (2, 8), and a radius of 2 and circle B has a center of (5, 4), and a radius of 10. What steps will help show that circle A is similar to circle B

Translate circle A using the rule (x − 3, y + 4). <--- My answer
Rotate circle A 270° about the center.
Reflect circle A over the line x=1
Dilate circle A by a scale factor of 5.

Answer 1

all circles are similar XD

Answer 2

hang on, imma get another peice of paper

Answer 3

oh ok ^w^

Answer 4

are these all one answer or 4 different answers?

Answer 5

4 different answers (:

Answer 6

I think it is the last one because when you dilate something, it gets bigger. when a circle with a radius of 2 is dialated by 5, it becomes a circle with a radius of 10

Answer 7

then, you can say the circles are congruent.

Answer 8

???

Answer 9

oh ok are u sure it would be the last one ? just wondering

Answer 10

not 100%, buttttt.... when you translate (the first answer) you just move the points. That doesn't really prove anything except that the first circle can fit in the second one.

Answer 11

It's either the first one or the last one. it's your choice.

Answer 12

oh ok ^-^ thank you

Answer 13

the definition of similar is that it has sides(or radius) that correspond to an equal porportion.

Answer 14

oh ok i see what u mean now ^w^

Answer 15
