1 answer:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, ∠B ≅ ∠E and 3DE = 2BC
<h3>What is transformation?</h3>Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are <em>rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.</em>
Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure by a scale factor.
Right triangle ABC is reflected over AC, then dilated by a scale factor of 2/3 to form triangle DEC, hence:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, corresponding angles are congruent (∠B ≅ ∠E) and DE = (2/3)BC i.e. 3DE = 2BC

Parallel lines, have the same slope, so the slope of the line through 0,0 and -2,-12, is the same as for the line running through (6/5,-19.5) as well, so what is it anyway?
so, we're looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 6, and goes through (6/5,-19/5)
