Question

Which transformations will produce similar, but not congruent, figures?

Select each correct answer.


​ Parallelogram JKLM ​ is dilated by a scale factor of 6 and then translated 2 units down to form ​ parallelogram J"K"L"M" ​ .

Parallelogram JKLM is rotated 90° clockwise and then reflected across the y-axis to form parallelogram J"K"L"M" .

​ Parallelogram JKLM ​ is translated 8 units left and then reflected across the x-axis to form ​ parallelogram J"K"L"M" ​ .

​ Parallelogram JKLM ​ is translated 6 units up and then dilated by a scale factor of 10 to form ​ parallelogram J"K"L"M" ​ .

Answer 1

B) Parallelogram JKLM is translated and then dilated
as well as c
C) Parallelogram JKLM is dilated and translated

C is the best answer because is size is changing. In all the others nothing is changing except the position which remains congruent and similar but C does not . The sizes changes which makes them not congruent but still similar.

Answer 2

C is the c would be the answer. C is the answer because translating will just make it move the opposite way.
