question 2 of 10
complete this sentence: after a congruence transformation, the area of a triangle would be __________ it was before.
a. cannot be determined
b. greater than
c. less than
d. the same as
A congruence transformation (also called an isometry) preserves the size and shape of a figure. This means that the lengths of sides, the measures of angles, and the area of the figure remain unchanged. For a triangle, after a congruence transformation (like translation, rotation, or reflection), its area will be the same as it was before because the transformation doesn't stretch, shrink, or otherwise alter the figure's dimensions that determine area.
