Question

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

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 1

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "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." This is the transformation that will produce similar, but not congruent, figures.
