Question

Is trangle ABC ~ trangle XYZ ? if so , what sequence of transformation maps trangle ABC to XYZ

Answer 1

You have the figurew ABC with the following vertices:

A(-2,-4)

B(0,-1)

C(2,-4)

First, multiply all points by 2 (this is the first transformation)

A => A'(-4,-8)

B => B'(0,-2)

C => C'(4,-8)

Next, translate the previous points 6 units upward (which means add 6 units to each y-coordinate).

A' => X(-4,-2)

B' => Y(0,4)

C' => Z(4,-2)

as you can notice, with the previous transformation you obtain the vertices X, Y, and Z and form the figure XYZ.
