To answer your question about whether the new house after the transformation is congruent to the house in Chapter 2, or if it is an enlargement or reduction, we need to consider a few key concepts in geometry.
1. **Congruent shapes**: Two shapes are congruent if they have the same size and shape. This means all corresponding sides and angles are equal.
2. **Enlargement and reduction**: If a shape is enlarged or reduced, it will maintain the same shape but not the same size. An enlargement involves increasing the dimensions of the shape while a reduction involves decreasing the dimensions.
Now, if the transformation described involves changes in size (such as scaling the dimensions up or down while keeping the same proportions), then we would say that the new house is either an enlargement or a reduction, depending on whether its dimensions have increased or decreased.
On the other hand, if the transformation only involved rotations, translations, or reflections without changing the size, then the new house would be congruent to the one described in Chapter 2.
To provide a definitive answer, we need more information about the nature of the transformation applied to the house after Chapter 2. If you could outline the specifics of the transformation (e.g., was it a scaling, rotation, or reflection?), I would be able to clarify whether the new house is congruent or an enlargement/reduction.
