Two squares, a smaller one inside a larger one, are plotted in quadrant 1 of a coordinate plane. The smaller square shares a vertex and two of its sides with parts of two sides of the larger square. The x- and y-axis both range from 0 to 8 in increments of 1.

Two equivalent triangles are plotted on a coordinate plane, one in quadrant 1 and one that starts in quadrant 2 and crosses into quadrant 1. The x-axis ranges from negative 4 to 7 in increments of 1, and the y-axis ranges from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. A line connects a vertex of the triangle in quadrant 2 to the matching vertex of the triangle in quadrant 1.

Two rectangles, a smaller one inside a larger one, are plotted around the origin on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 3 to 3 in increments of 1. The y-axis ranges from negative 3 to 5 in increments of 1.

Two triangles of different sizes are plotted on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 4 to 8 in increments of 1, and the y-axis ranges from negative 4 to 10 in increments of 1.The larger triangle is plotted around the origin and extends into all four quadrants, and the smaller triangle extends between quadrants 1 and 2.

Answer 1

The graph that demonstrates a transformation that preserves both distance and angle measure is the second option: Two equivalent triangles plotted on a coordinate plane, one in quadrant 1 and one that starts in quadrant 2 and crosses into quadrant 1. This type of transformation is likely a rigid transformation, such as a translation or rotation, which maintains the distance between points and the angle measures.

The other options either involve shapes that are scaled (which do not preserve distances) or are not clear transformations that maintain angles and distances as a rigid motion would.
