Graph AFGH with vertices F(-6, 3), G(3, 0), and H(3, -6) and its image after the similarity

transformation.
Translation: (x, y) → (x+2, y-1)
Dilation: (x,y) → (2x, 2y)

The diagram of the triangle and the sequence of transformation is attached

The images are similar

How to find if the image are similar

The sequence of transformation described has following effects

Translation: This will alter the position but the size remain congruent to the preimage

Dilation: At this point, the image is no longer congruent, However they are similar. The image is enlarged with a scale factor of 2
