The area of triangle KLM is 32 square units. After a 270° counterclockwise rotation about the origin, the area of image KLM is

• 8 square units

• 16 square units

• 24 square units

• 32 square units

Answer explanation

Remember that a rotation creates congruent figures (same size and shape) so the area will remain the same.

A sequence of transformations was applied to an equilateral triangle in a coordinate plane. The transformations used were rotations, reflections, and translations. Which statement about the resulting figure is true?

• It must be an equilateral triangle with the same side lengths as the original triangle.

• It must be an equilateral triangle, but the side lengths may differ from the original triangle.

• It may be a scalene triangle, and all the side lengths may differ from the original triangle.

• It may be an obtuse triangle with at least one side the same length as the original triangle.
