Which statement about the transformation is true?

Consider the transformation.

It is isometric because the side lengths remained the
same.
It is isometric because all angle measures remained the
same.
It is not isometric because the side lengths did not remain
the same.
It is not isometric because the angle measures did not
remain the same.​

The image of the transformation is missing so i have attached it;

Answer:

Option C - The transformation is not isometric because the lengths did not remain the same.

Explanation:

Transformation means that it preserves the length of the original figure which means that it is a distance preserving transformation.

Now, from the image of the question attached, the two figures can be said to be isometric if they are congruent.

Now, for the figure displaying the transformation we can see that the size of the original figure has changed.

We can see that the figure is dilated by a scale factor of 2 as each of the sides of the polygon which is a trapezoid is increased by a factor of 2.

Due to the fact that the lengths of sides of the original figure and transformed figure are are not same, we can say that the lengths are not preserved.

Thus, the transformation is not isometric because the lengths did not remain the same.
