Circle B is a transformation of Circle A. Describe the transformations that show why Circle A is similar to Circle B. YA 12 Circle B is the result of dilating Circle A with A as the center of dilation and using a scale factor of . then translating the image 12 units down. 10 8 6 A А Circle B is the result of dilating Circle A with A as the center of dilation and using a scale factor of then reflecting the image in the y-axis. 4 N -2 0 -2 2 4 6 8 10 12 x -4 Circle B is the result of dilating Circle A with A as the center of dilation and using a scale factor of, then translating the image 12 units down. -6 B -8 -10 -12 Circle B is the result of dilating Circle A with A as the center of dilation and using a scale factor of then rotating the image 180°.

The two circles, A and B have different diameters. The diiameter of circle A is 5 units while the diameter of circle B is 4 units. This means that circle B is smaller than circle A. This means that there is a dilation and it is a reduction. Thus, we can say that B is 4/5 * A

4/5 * 5 = 4

The image was then translated 12 units down. The correct option is the third one
