Answer: No, your friend is not correct. You cannot use a similarity transformation to turn a square into a rectangle. Here's why:
1) If you used a similarity transformation, the size and position of the shape would change, but the shape itself remains the same.
2) Squares and rectangles are NOT similar.* Referring to the first point I listed, if the shapes are not similar, then a similarity transformation cannot be used to turn one shape into another.
<em>*Similar means that the edges are proportional to one another, such as a square with sides of 4 meters vs a square with sides of 2 meters: the sides are different lengths, but the shape is the same.</em>
I hope this helps! Please feel free to comment below if you need any clarification. Have a good day, and good luck on your assignment. :)
Answer:
For a shape to be inscribed means that it's area is smaller than that of the other shape. Essentially, it's one shape inside another.
View my crudely drawn example for visualization. There, the square-ish shape is inscribed in the circle.
(You can basically inscribe any shape within another.)
