Question

Triangle PQR is transformed to triangle P'Q'R'. Triangle PQR has vertices P(3, −6), Q(0, 9), and R(−3, 0). Triangle P'Q'R' has vertices P'(1, −2), Q'(0, 3), and R'(−1, 0).

Plot triangles PQR and P'Q'R' on your own coordinate grid.

Part A: What is the scale factor of the dilation that transforms triangle PQR to triangle P'Q'R'? Explain your answer. (4 points)

Part B: Write the coordinates of triangle P"Q"R" obtained after P'Q'R' is reflected about the y-axis. (4 points)

Part C: Are the two triangles PQR and P''Q''R'' congruent? Explain your answer. (2 points)

Answer 1

@BestBoiKirby

Answer 2

i am here

Answer 3

one q before i start

Answer 4

is this is a test question?

Answer 5

It is for a review of a test. But I cant figure this stupid question out and it doesnt even give me the grid to try and solve it

Answer 6

ok, so do you have grid paper? or do you have enough art skills to make a decent looking grid?

Answer 7

I could try but I dont know the coordinates or anything

Answer 8

well, heres what you should do, ill list it srep by step

Answer 9

"srep", lol

Answer 10

make a giant plus sine for the base of ur grid

Answer 11

sign*

Answer 12

I know that part equals 2 but part B and C make no sense

Answer 13

huh? you just completely threw me off

Answer 14

part A equals 2

Answer 15

I got that far but as for part B and C. It doesnt make any sense

Answer 16

if im being 1000% honest, i feel like you should ping someone better at math than me, i can try, but i feel you would get the best results out of someone like mira angel

Answer 17

do you want me to ping her or are you ok with meh bad explanations

Answer 18

You can ping her if you want

Answer 19

shes offline TwT

Answer 20

@darkknight, you're good at math, can you help him and give a good explanation?

Answer 21

or @silvernight269

Answer 22

bring all the knights

Answer 23

Get some graph paper out or use Desmos to graph the triangles

Answer 24

Why is this hard?! Like why cant math just be easy

Answer 25

\[D = \sqrt (x _{2-} x _{1})^2 + (y _{2} - y _{1})^2\]

You can use this formula to calculate the distance between points if you can't tell on the graph

Answer 26

?????????

Answer 27

TBH Iḿ terrible at math. I understand some of it but the rest is just way to hard. I dont understand the formulas and all that

Answer 28

Okay give me a min

Answer 29

well, offline, lol
