Question

example 2
for each pair of figures, write the sequence of transformations that would show the figures are
similar. if the figures are not similar, explain why.

Explanation:

Answer:

Translate the smaller figure \( 9 \) units left and \( 1 \) unit up, then dilate by a scale factor of \( 2 \).
Translate the larger figure \( 8 \) units right and \( 3 \) units down, then dilate by a scale factor of \( \frac{1}{2} \).
Reflect the larger figure over the \( x \)-axis, translate \( 1 \) unit left and \( 3 \) units down, then dilate by a scale factor of \( \frac{1}{2} \).
