Question

Two triangles are sketched on a coordinate plane using a dilation of 2, sharing the same center ordered pair at the origin. One triangle has angle measures of 34 degrees and 80 degrees. Using the AA criterion, what would be the two corresponding angles of the dilated triangle?(1 point) Responses 44 degrees and 70 degrees 44 degrees and 70 degrees 34 degrees and 80 degrees 34 degrees and 80 degrees 68 degrees and 160 degrees 68 degrees and 160 degrees 17 degrees and 40 degrees 17 degrees and 40 degrees

Answer 1

To find the corresponding angles of the dilated triangle, we can use the AA (Angle-Angle) criterion, which states that if two triangles have two angles that are equal, then the triangles are similar.

In this case, the triangle with angles 34 degrees and 80 degrees will have its angles corresponding to the dilated triangle. Since dilation does not change angle measures, the angles of the dilated triangle will remain the same as the original triangle.

Thus, the corresponding angles of the dilated triangle will also be 34 degrees and 80 degrees.

The correct answer is: 34 degrees and 80 degrees.
