Question

consider the transformation shown. use the drop - down menus to complete the sentence. the transformation is nonrigid because the segment lengths are not preserved. segment lengths are angle measures are not angle measures are image pre - image

Explanation:

Step1: Recall definition of rigid and non - rigid transformation

A rigid transformation preserves segment lengths and angle measures. A non - rigid transformation does not preserve segment lengths.

Step2: Analyze given triangles

In the pre - image and image, the segment lengths have changed (e.g., side length 6 in pre - image corresponds to side length 3 in image). Angle measures seem to be the same.

Answer:

The transformation is nonrigid because the segment lengths are not preserved.
