question
What is the length of a leg of the pre-image, triangle RST?
answer
16 units
question
Which best explains why all equilateral triangles are similar?
answer
All equilateral triangles can be mapped into each other using dilations
question
We are given AB ∥ DE. Because the lines are parallel and segment CB crosses both lines, we can consider segment CB a transversal of the parallel lines. Angles CED and CBA are corresponding angles of transversal CB and are therefore congruent, so ∠CED ≅ ∠CBA. We can state ∠C ≅ ∠C using the reflexive property. Therefore, △ACB ~ △DCE by the
answer
AA similarity theorem
question
To prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem, it needs to be SHOWN that
answer
AC/GI, BC/HI
question
Is rectangle EFGH the result of a dilation of rectangle ABCD with a center of dilation at the origin? Why or why not?
answer
Yes, because both figures are rectangles and all rectangles are similar
question
Which value of x would make T V II QS
answer
10
question
To prove that â–³DFE ~ â–³GFH by the SAS similarity theorem, it can be stated that and
answer
DFE is congruent to GFH
question
What are the coordinates of vertex J of the pre-image?
answer
(0, -4)
question
Which value of y would make OP II LN?
answer
36
question
If CA = 8, what is C'A'?
answer
10 Units
question
Why is the information in the diagram enough to determine that â–³LMN ~ â–³PON using a rotation about point N and a dilation?
answer
because one pair of congruent corresponding angles is sufficient to determine similar triangles
question
Which statements can be concluded from the diagram and used to prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem?
answer
RS/VU = ST/UT and S congruent U
question
If the triangles are similar, which must be true?
answer
RY/RS = RX/RT = XY/TS
question
If an image of a triangle is congruent to the pre-image, what is the scale factor of the dilation?
answer
1
question
Is triangle A'B'C' a dilation of triangle ABC? Explain.
answer
No, it is not a dilation because the points of the image are not moved away from the center of dilation proportionally.
question
What is the perimeter of ΔWXY?
answer
14.50 Cm
question
What is the scale factor of the dilation?
answer
4
question
What is the length of AC?
answer
18 Ft
question
What are the coordinates of the endpoints of the segment T'V'?
answer
T'(-3, 6) and V'(0, 3)
question
Which transformations could have occurred to map â–³ABC to â–³A"B"C"?
answer
a dilation and a rotation
question
Using the side-splitter theorem, Daniel wrote a proportion for the segments formed by line segment DE. What is EC?
answer
2.4 Units
question
To prove that the triangles are similar by the SSS similarity theorem, which other sides or angles should be used? MN and SR
answer
MN and QR
question
ΔRST was _____________, then dilated, to create ΔZXY.
answer
translated
question
What is the perimeter of AEB?
answer
18.5 ft
question
To prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem, it needs to be PROVEN that
answer
I measures 60
