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.

Can someone plz help me with this problem and plz show work.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 5

the slope (m) of this line is 2 (which can be written as 2/1)

The slope of a perpendicular line is -1/m (the reciprocal of the slope with the opposite sign)

so m = 2/1 => -1/m = - 1/2 = the slope of a line perpendicular to y = 2x + 5
