Question

In the similaritytransformation of AABCto AFED, AABC was dilated bya scale factor of [? ], reflectedacross the [ ], and movedthrough the translation [ ].

Answer 1

Explanation:

From the graph:

• The length of AC = 6 units

,

• The length of DF = 3 units

`\begin{gathered} 6k=3 \\ \implies k=(3)/(6)=(1)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Triangle ABC was dilated by a scale factor of 1/2.

Next, observe that triangles ABC and FED are on opposite sides of the y-axis, therefore, triangle ABC was reflected across the y-axis.
