• ½

• ¼

• 4

• 2

Are the two figures similar? Why or why not?

• No, because they are not the same size.

• No, because they don't share a center of dilation.

• Yes, because a translation 6 units down followed by a dilation of scale factor 2 through the origin maps Q to R.

• Yes, because a dilation of a scale factor 2 through the origin followed by a translation 6 units down maps Q to R.
