What must all congruent figures have in common that similar figures do not?
same side lengths
congruent figure must have congruent sides and angles similar figures must have congruent angles, but may or may not have congruent sides
ok next! Compare and contrast the pre-image with the image after a: Rotation: Reflection: Translation: Dilation:
a rotation turns the figure without affecting size or shape. pre-image and image are congruent reflection "flips" the figure without affecting size or shape. pre-image and image are congruent
translation moves the figure up or down without affecting size or shape. image and preimage are congruent
dilation stretches or shrinks the figure by a scale factor. image and pre-image may not be congruent but are similar
ok thankssss!!!!!! your the best :))) <3
