ΔOBC is similar to ΔOGT because: (choose the best answer)

• ΔOBC can be dilated about point O by a scale factor of 1/2, and then rotated 90 degrees about point O.

• ΔOBC can be dilated about point G by a scale factor of 1/2, and then reflected over the x- axis

• They aren't similar

• They map to each other with similarity transformations.

• Reflect triangle ABC across the y-axis, followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 about the origin.

• Reflect triangle ABC across the x-axis, followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 about the origin.

After a dilation w/ center Point A, what transformation would have ABC (blue) match up to CDE (red)?

• Translation

• Reflection

• Rotation

• Another Dilation

Answer explanation

The larger blue triangle is formed after the dilation w/ center A. It would have to SLIDE (translate) into place.
