Question

2. Which transformation rule would produce figures that are similar, but notcongruent?A (x, y) + ( x,y)B. (X, Y) - (y, x)c. (x, y) - (2x, 2y)D. (x, y) - (x + 2, Y + 2)

Answer 1

Dilation is a process of changing the size of an object or shape by decreasing or increasing its dimensions by some scaling factors.

The standard transformation equation of dilation is:

`\text{ x,y }\rightarrow\text{ Ax, By}`

Where,

A & B are constants/numbers. These are the scaling factors, it could be one common factor or not.

Thus, among the given choices, the best transformation rule that would produce figures that are similar, but not congruent is:

`\text{ x,y }\rightarrow\text{ }2x,\text{ 2y}`

It shows that the original coordinates are

The answer is letter C.
