Question

tell whether the transformation appears to be a rigid transformation. explain.

preimage: a small oval; image: a larger oval

does the transformation appear to be a rigid transformation?
a. yes, because there are no angles or sides in the preimage or image, so the transformation must be a rigid transformation.
b. yes, because the preimage and the image appear to be congruent.
c. no, because there are no angles or sides in the preimage or image, so the transformation cannot be a rigid transformation.
d. no, because the preimage and the image do not appear to be congruent.

Explanation:

A rigid transformation preserves size and shape, meaning the preimage and image must be congruent. The image oval looks larger than the preimage oval, so they are not congruent, hence not a rigid transformation.

Answer:

D. No, because the preimage and the image do not appear to be congruent.
