Circle A has center (2, 7) and radius 2. Circle B has center (9, 1) and radius 5. Which transformations can be used to show that the two circles are similar?

• Translate circle A right 7 and down 6 and then dilate with scale factor 5/2 and center (9, 1)

• Translate circle A left 7, up 6 and then dilate with scale factor 2/5 and center (9, 1).

• Dilate circle A using center (2, 7) and scale factor 2/5 then translate right 7 and down 6

• Reflect circle A over x = 5.5 and translate up 6 units.

The best way to demonstrate that all circles are similar is to show that

• they're all round

• they all have centers

• a combination of transformations can 'make' one circle become another

• since pi is 3.14, and pies are round and circular, then it's obvious
