Understanding Scaled and Rotated Figures

The video tutorial explains how figure two is a scaled and rotated version of figure one. It guides viewers through identifying corresponding sides between the two figures, focusing on side EA in figure one and its counterpart in figure two. The tutorial uses a methodical approach to determine side correspondences, emphasizing the importance of recognizing longest sides and right angles. The conclusion highlights the key points and confirms the corresponding sides.

What transformation has been applied to figure two compared to figure one?

• It has been scaled down and rotated 180 degrees.

• It has been scaled up and rotated 90 degrees.

• It has been scaled up and rotated 180 degrees.

• It has been scaled down and rotated 90 degrees.

Which side in figure two corresponds to the longest side in figure one?

• Side EA

• Side HL

• Side KJ

• Side LK

What is the significance of identifying the longest side in both figures?

• It indicates the original size of the figure.

• It shows the direction of rotation.

• It helps in identifying corresponding sides.

• It helps in determining the scale factor.

What is the relationship between side BC in figure one and side HL in figure two?

• They are both the shortest sides.

• They are both the longest sides.

• They are both parallel sides.

• They are both perpendicular sides.

How can you identify the side in figure two that corresponds to side EA in figure one?

• By following the shorter side connected to the longest side.

• By identifying the side with two right angles.

• By finding the longest side in figure two.

• By matching the side with the same length.

Which side in figure two corresponds to side EA in figure one?

• Side HL

• Side LK

• Side BC

• Side KJ

What is the importance of recognizing right angles in identifying corresponding sides?

• They help in identifying the longest side.

• They indicate the side that has been scaled.

• They help in identifying the shorter side connected to the longest side.

• They show the side that has been rotated.

Which point in figure two corresponds to point B in figure one?

• Point K

• Point L

• Point J

• Point H

How does rotation help in identifying corresponding sides?

• It alters the angles between sides.

• It makes the sides parallel.

• It changes the size of the sides.

• It aligns the sides for easier comparison.

Why is it important to identify similar features on a relative basis?

• To understand the transformation applied.

• To find corresponding sides and points.

• To determine the scale factor.

• To identify the original figure.
