Triangle PQR is transformed to triangle P′Q′R′. Triangle PQR has vertices P(4, −8), Q(0, 12), and R(−4, 0). Triangle P′Q′R′ has

vertices P′(1, −2), Q′(0, 3), and R′(−1, 0).
Part A: What is the scale factor of the dilation that transforms triangle PQR to triangle P′Q′R′? Explain your answer. (4 points)

Part B: Write the coordinates of triangle P′′Q′′R′′ obtained after P′Q′R′ is reflected about the y-axis. (4 points)

Part C: Are the two triangles PQR and P′'Q′'R′' congruent? Explain your answer. (2 points)

Part A:

The scale factor is 1/4, because you obtain the coordinates of points P', Q', R' by dividing the coordinates of P, Q and R respectively by 4.

Part B:

Reflecting about the y axis causes a sign swap in the x coordinate. So, the new point will be

P''(-1, -2),\quad Q''(0, 3),\quad R''(1, 0)

Part C:

The triangles are similar, but not congruent. When you transform PQR into P'Q'R', you get a scaled version of the original triangle. This means that the angles and the proportion between sizes will be the same, but the length are scaled by 1/4, and the area is consequentially scaled by 1/16.

Triangles P'Q'R' and P''Q''R'' are congruent, so they are both similar but not congruent to the original triangle.

I need this ASAP!<br><br><br>7a-8b=10x
Rufina [12.5K]
Ok so if you notice every choice is solved for a, all you have to do is isolate "a" in 7a-8b=10x. Start by moving 8b to the other side and to change the sign. Now it is 7a = 10x + 8b. Then divide everything by 7 and you get a = (10x + 8b)/7

What is 3 minus 2 2/3
Tpy6a [65]
If you would like to know what is 3 minus 2 2/3, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 - 2 2/3 = 3 - 8/3 = 9/3 - 8/3 = 1/3

The correct result would be 1/3.
