This video tutorial explains how to determine if two figures are congruent or similar using rigid motions and dilations. It covers the definitions of congruence and similarity, the role of rigid motions, and how to calculate the scale factor for similar figures. The tutorial includes example problems to illustrate these concepts, emphasizing that congruent figures are identical in size and shape, while similar figures have the same shape but different sizes. The video also explains how to use the Delta Math platform to practice these concepts.

What is the main focus of the video tutorial?

• Solving algebraic equations

What is required for two figures to be congruent?

• Same shape and different size

• Different size and different shape

• Same size and different shape

• Same size and same shape

Why are figures IJKL and RSTU not congruent?

• They require dilation to map onto each other

• They are the same size but different shapes

• They are both reflections of each other

• They are both rotations of each other

What defines similar figures?

• Same size and shape

• Same shape but different sizes

• Same size but different shapes

• Different shapes and sizes

How can you transform figure IJKL to RSTU?

• Using only rigid motions

• Using a reflection and rotation

• Using a dilation and rigid motions

• Using only a dilation

What is the scale factor if IJ is 9 blocks and RS is 6 blocks?

• 3/4

• 1/2

• 2/3

• 3/2

What happens to the size of a figure when the scale factor is less than 1?

• The figure becomes smaller

• The figure changes shape

• The figure remains the same size

• The figure becomes larger

What is the scale factor between two congruent figures?

• 1/2

• 0

• 2

• 1

If two figures are congruent, what can be said about their similarity?

• They are not similar

• They are automatically similar

• They are similar only if rotated

• They are similar only if translated
