Geometry 9-7 Complete Lesson: Similarity Transformations

Solve It! Your friend says that she performed a composition of transformations to map △ABC to △A'B'C'. Describe the composition of transformations.

Problem 2 Got It?

Problem 3 Got It?

Problem 4 Got It?

Open-Ended: For △TUV, give the vertices of a similar triangle after a similarity transformation that uses at least 1 rigid motion.

Review Lesson 9-3: Which capital letters of the alphabet are rotation images of themselves? Draw each letter and give an angle of rotation (<360°).

Review Lesson 6-7: Three vertices of an isosceles trapezoid are (-2, 1), (1, 4), and (4, 4). Graph the given vertices in black and all possible fourth vertices in blue. Label the vertices with coordinates. Include all relevant graph detail.

Review Lesson 1-8: Find the area of each figure. Not all areas will be used.

Vocabulary Review: Complete each sentence with the most appropraite word(s) from the list.

Use Your Vocabulary: The image of a dilation is 5 in. and the corresponding preimage length is 2 in. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Use Your Vocabulary: The scale factor of a dilation is 2/3. An image length is 4 m. What is the corresponding preimage length?
