Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"Rigid motion" can be considered as anything you can do with a cardboard cutout. You can move it around (translation) and you can flip it over (reflection). You can rotate it.

You cannot change its size, which is what dilation does. Dilation is not a rigid motion. It requires the object to be stretchable, not rigid.

Line segment AB was dilated to create line segment A'B'

MrMuchimi

Answer:

13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the segment AQ is related to the measure of the segment A'Q by the dilation factor as follows:

dilation factor = A'Q/AQ

AQ = A'Q/dilation factor

Replacing with data:

AQ = 2.4/0.15 = 16

Then, the distance between points A and A' is

x = 16 - 2.4 = 13.6
