Question

Given that AB parallels QR, AB bisects AE, QR bisects QT

Answer 1

Answer:

  1. Dilate ΔABE by a factor of 2/5 to make ΔA'B'E'

  2. Translate A' to Q

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice the triangles have the same orientation, so no reflection or rotation is involved. The desired mapping can be accomplished by dilation and translation:

  1. Dilate ΔABE by a factor of 2/5 to make ΔA'B'E'

  2. Translate A' to Q

The result will be that ΔA"B"E" will lie on top of ΔQRT, as required.
