Why do all transformation preserve distance

Mathematics
1 answer:
yuradex [85]3 years ago
7 0
Well, a distance-preserving transformation is called a rigid motion, and the name suggests that it <em>moves the points of the plane around in a rigid fashion.</em>

A transformation is distance-preserving if the distance between the images of any two points and the distance between the two original points are equal.

If that's confusing, I get it; basically if you transform something, the points from the transformation are image points. Take the distance from a pair of image points, and take the distance from a pair of original points, and they should be the same for a <em>rigid </em>motion.

I keep emphasizing this b/c not all transformations preserve distance; a dilation can grow or shrink things. But if you didn't go over dilations, don't say nothin XD

Find the volume of a box with a height that is 4 inches less than the
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Volume of the box = x^3 - 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

V = L × W × H

Where,

V = volume of the rectangular prism

L= Length

W = Width

H = Height

volume of the rectangular prism = length × width × height

Length = x

Width= length = x

Height = x - 4

V = L × W × H

= x * x * (x - 4)

= x^2 (x - 4)

= x^3 - 4x^2

V = x^3 - 4x^2

Volume of the box = x^3 - 4x^2
