Answer: The answer is given below.

Step-by-step explanation: The given circles are:

Circle 1: centre (2, 3) and radius 4

Circle 2: centre (2, 3) and radius 12.

The equations of circle 1 and circle 2 are respectively given as :

$(x-2)^2+(y-3)^2=4^2,\\\\(x-2)^2+(y-3)^2=12^2.$

These two circles are drawn on the graph as shown in the attached figure.

We can easily see that the Circle 2 is a dilation of Circle 1 with a scale factor

$S=\dfrac{12}{4}=3.$

Thus, the two circles are similar.

Equation is:

$y = \frac{x}{9}$

=> $y = (\frac{1}{9} ) x$

Comparing it with $y = kx$ , where k is the proportionality constant, We get:
