To answer your questions, let's break them down step by step:
Chapter 1
Original House Coordinates:
- A(2,3)
- B(4,3)
- C(4,5)
- D(3,6)
- E(2,5)
Transformation due to Flood:
- The flood moves your house 4 blocks to the left and 2 blocks down.
- This transformation can be expressed as subtracting 4 from the x-coordinates and 2 from the y-coordinates of each point.
New Location of Your House:
- A'(2-4, 3-2) = A'(-2, 1)
- B'(4-4, 3-2) = B'(0, 1)
- C'(4-4, 5-2) = C'(0, 3)
- D'(3-4, 6-2) = D'(-1, 4)
- E'(2-4, 5-2) = E'(-2, 3)
New Points of the House After Flood:
- A'(-2, 1)
- B'(0, 1)
- C'(0, 3)
- D'(-1, 4)
- E'(-2, 3)
Description of Transformation:
- The transformation that occurred when the flood moved your house can be described as a translation where each point was translated left by 4 units and down by 2 units.
Congruence:
- Yes, your new house (A', B', C', D', E') after this translation is congruent to the original house (A, B, C, D, E) because translation does not change the shape or size of the figure; it only changes the position.
Chapter 2
New Neighbor's House:
- Your neighbor's house is a reflection of your house over the x-axis.
- To reflect a point (x, y) over the x-axis, the new point becomes (x, -y).
Neighbor's House Coordinates (Reflection over the x-axis):
- A'(-2, 1) ⇒ A''(-2, -1)
- B'(0, 1) ⇒ B''(0, -1)
- C'(0, 3) ⇒ C''(0, -3)
- D'(-1, 4) ⇒ D''(-1, -4)
- E'(-2, 3) ⇒ E''(-2, -3)
New Points for Neighbor’s House:
- A''(-2, -1)
- B''(0, -1)
- C''(0, -3)
- D''(-1, -4)
- E''(-2, -3)
Color for Plot:
- For the neighbor’s house, let's say we use red on your graph.
Congruence with Neighbor's House:
- Yes, your neighbor's house is congruent to your house because reflection preserves the shape and size of the figure.
Chapter 3
Tornado Transformation:
- A tornado hits and rotates your house 180 degrees counterclockwise about the origin.
- The transformation of rotating a point (x, y) 180 degrees around the origin can be expressed as (-x, -y).
New Coordinates After Rotation:
- A''(-2, 1) ⇒ A'''(2, -1)
- B''(0, -1) ⇒ B'''(0, 1)
- C''(0, -3) ⇒ C'''(0, 3)
- D''(-1, -4) ⇒ D'''(1, 4)
- E''(-2, -3) ⇒ E'''(2, 3)
New Points After 180 Degrees Rotation:
- A'''(2, -1)
- B'''(0, 1)
- C'''(0, 3)
- D'''(1, 4)
- E'''(2, 3)
Question 8
Congruence with Neighbor's House:
- Yes, your house after the transformation (A''', B''', C''', D''', E''') is still congruent to your neighbor's house (A'', B'', C'', D'', E''). This is because rotation, like reflection, preserves shape and size.
In summary, your houses through the different transformations remain congruent because transformations like translations, reflections, and rotations maintain congruence in geometric figures.
