Question

consider the two similar figure below. Which sequence of transformations will carry quadrilateral ABCD onto quadrilateral EFGH

Answer 1

The first answer

Explanation:

When you dilate something by a fraction the quadrilateral is going to get smaller. So, we can eliminate 2 and 4. Next I took point A and dilated it by 1/2 and then applied the translation to it. Once I figured out where each one landed, the first one was correct because it was on point E of EFGH and the other translation was not.
