A translation of T(x, y) = (- 5, 2) and a dilation with center (- 5, 2) with a scale factor of 1 / 3 are necessary to transform circle A into circle B. (Correct choice: D)
<h3>What sequence of rigid transformations can be done on a circle</h3>
In this problem we must determine the sequence of transformations require to transform circle A into circle B. From analytical geometry we know that the equation of the circle in standard form is:
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
Where:
- (h, k) - Coordinates of the center.
- r - Radius of the circle.
Then, we need to apply the following rigid transformations:
Translation
f(x, y) → f(x - h, y - k), where (h, k) is the translation vector.
Dilation with center at the center of the circle
r → k · r, where k is the scale factor.
The circle A is represented by x² + y² = 3, then we derive the expression for the circle B:
f(x, y) → f(x + 5, y - 2)
(x + 5)² + (y - 2)² = 9
r → k · r
(x + 5)² + (y - 2)² = (1 / 3)² · 9
(x + 5)² + (y - 2)² = 1
Then, a translation of T(x, y) = (- 5, 2) and a dilation with center (- 5, 2) are necessary to transform circle A into circle B.
