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.

Jashon performed a transformation on a triangle with pre-image coordinates D(-6,0) E(-6,3) and F(-9,9). The coordinates of the image are D'(-2,0) E'(-2,1) and F' (-3,3). He challenges his friend Steve to describe the transformation. What response is correct?

• The pre-image was translated 3 units to the left

• The pre-image was translated 3 units to the right

• The pre-image was dilated by a scale factor of 1/3.

• The pre-image was dilated by a scale factor of 3.
