Question

choose the correct answer below. a. the transformation is not a rigid motion because the image appears to have a different orientation than the preimage. b. the transformation is a rigid motion because all corresponding angles and sides appear to be the same size. c. the transformation is not a rigid motion because the image and preimage do not overlap. d. the transformation is not a rigid motion because all corresponding angles and sides appear to be the same size. does the transformation appear to be a rigid motion? explain.

Explanation:

A rigid - motion preserves side - lengths and angle - measures. In the given transformation, the image and pre - image seem to have the same side - lengths and angle - measures, indicating that it is a rigid motion. The orientation change does not affect whether it is a rigid motion or not. Since the corresponding angles and sides appear to be the same size, the transformation is a rigid motion.

Answer:

D. The transformation is a rigid motion because all corresponding angles and sides appear to be the same size.
