Bella's sequence is correct; For once, we can check the scale factor. The large side in the blue shape is 8 units long, while in the red shape it is 12. Hence, the scale factor is 12/8=1.5. Also, we have that the rotation part is correct, since the rotation needs to be 180 degrees to get an upside down version of the shape.
Marco's sequence is almost correct, but due to the reflection part, the 2 shapes should have the same orientation after this procedure. Hence, we get that the pointy parts of the shapes should point to the same direction. This is clearly not the case here, so Marco's procedure is wrong; in fact, his procedure yields almost the same object as the red one, only reflected along the y-axis.
One can ultimately rely on oneself to know what it right. To “trust they self” is to trust your instincts. Hope this helps :)
Answer :
D. The sentence which best states the controlling idea of this passage is "The wire taps were never a secret, but they helped the United States gain military intelligence.
"
The following excerpts from the passage reaffirm this controlling idea :
1. "On balance, however, some valuable information was gathered from the tapped conversations. The U.S. learned, for example, a great deal about the Soviet and Eastern European order of battle, or its military organization. Others feel that the intelligence was valuable to check against similar information obtained from other sources."
2."The evidence suggests that the CIA gained two invaluable and untainted kinds of knowledge from the taps. The agency learned a basic blueprint of the Soviet and East German security systems, and it never picked up a glimmer of warning that Moscow intended to go to war.”
