Compare figures ABCD and PQRS. Which statement explains why the figures are similar

or are not similar?

• The figures are not similar because they do not have corresponding angles that are congruent.

• The figures are not similar because they do not have corresponding sides that are proportional.

• The composition Ro,90 (Do,1/2) maps figure ABCD onto figure PQRS, showing they are similar.

• The composition Do,1/2 (Ro,270) maps figure ABCD onto figure PQRS, showing they are similar.
