To determine if the figures are similar, we need to check if the corresponding angles
are congruent and if the corresponding sides are proportional.
First, rotate ABC clockwise about the origin. The new coordinates are
A' (-3, -4), B'(-1, -3), and C"(-2, -1) Next, translate A'B'C" by subtracting
4.5 from the x-coordinates and 5 from the y-coordinates. The new coordinates are
E' (-7.5, -9), E(-5.6, -3.2), and G (-6.5, -3.5)
Comparing the coordinates of ( triangle) EFG and ( triangle) A'B'C"
, we can see that they are
not the same. Therefore, (triangle)EFG is not
the image of (triangle) ABC.

Answer 1

To see if the two shapes are alike, we check if their angles are the same and their sides match up. First, we turned triangle ABC around the center point and got new points A', B', and C". Then, when we moved those points again, the shapes didn’t look the same, so triangle EFG is not the same as triangle ABC.
