Congruency and Similarity Transformations

Quad OBCD is similar to Quad OHTE because:

• Quad OBCD can be reflected over the x axis and then rotated 90 degrees

• Quad OBCD can be reflected over the x-axis and then dilated about point O by a scale factor of 2.

• Quad OBCD can be reflected over the y-axis and then dilated about point O by a scale factor of 2.

• Quad OBCD can be reflected over the y-axis and then dilated about point O by a scale factor of 1/2.

Choose the correct similarity transformation.

• Dilation using scale factor of 5/2 followed by a rotation 90 CCW

• Dilation with a scale factor of 5/2 followed by a y-axis reflection

• Dilation with scales factor of 5/2 followed by 90 CCW rotation and then a translation 3 units to the left and 3 units down

• 90 CCW rotation  followed by 5/2 dilation

Mrs. Johns was able to map circle P onto circle R (with Q and s being on each circle, respectively) using a translation and a dilation. Mrs. Johns concluded: "I was able to map circle P onto circle R using a sequence of transformations and a dilation, so the figures are similar." What error did Mrs. Johns make in her conclusion?

• Mrs. Johns used translations so the circles aren't similar.

• Mrs. Johns used dilations so the circles aren't similar.

• There is no error. This is a correct conclusion.
