The correct answer would be a dialation of 1 over 3 as P'Q'R'S' is smaller than PQRS and its a third of its size.

Answer: The correct set of transformations is (B) A dilation factor of 1 over 3.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to similar polygons PQRS and P'Q'R'S'.

We are to select the correct set of transformations that was performed on the polygon PQRS to form P'Q'R'S'.

Since the two polygons PQRS and P'Q'R'S' are similar, so there will be a dilation with a dilation (scale) factor.

We need to find the dilation factor of the dilation.

In P'Q'R'S', the length of a side is given by

P'Q' = 2 units,

and the length of the corresponding side in PQRS is given by

PQ = 2 units.

Therefore, the dilation factor of dilation is

$D=\dfrac{\textup{length of a side of }P'Q'R'S'}{\textup{length of the corresponding side in }PQRS}\\\\\\\Rightarrow S=\dfrac{P'Q'}{PQ}=\dfrac{2}{6}=\dfrac{1}{3}.$

Thus, there will be a dilation with a dilation factor of $\dfrac{1}{3}.$

Option (B) is correct.

<h3>What are helping verbs?</h3>

Whether they do so by conveying time, voice, possibility, necessity, obligation, or other crucial information, or by assisting in the framing of a question, supporting verbs provide additional information to the main verb. For the record, verbs are words that describe an action or state of being. Auxiliary verbs are another name for helping verbs (or auxiliaries). The most typical auxiliary verbs are, do, and have (in all of their forms), but there are also modal auxiliaries, commonly known as modals or modal verbs. In other words, while all auxiliary verbs are models, not all auxiliary verbs are helping verbs.

What is the equation for the line of reflection? On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (6, 3.7), (5.4, 2), (1, 3). Tr

elixir [45]

Answer:

The equation for the line of reflection will be x = y.

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, triangle Δ ABC has points (6, 3.7), (5.4, 2), (1, 3). Triangle Δ A'B'C' has points (3.7, 6), (2, 5.4), (3, 1).

And we have to find the equation of the line of reflection of the points.

Now, it is clear from the coordinates of vertices of Δ ABC and Δ A'B'C' that after reflection the x and y-values of the respective coordinates interchange and there is no change in signs.

Therefore, the equation for the line of reflection will be x = y. (Answer)
