Explanation:

Question 8:

We only have 4 unconnected points with no defined sides, so we cannot verify if the sides are congruent, parallel, or if the shape meets square criteria.

Question 9:

Translation is a rigid transformation, which only moves a figure without altering its shape or size.

Question 10:

The quilt block pattern is made by rotating identical triangular shapes around a central point to form the star-like design.

Answer:

Question 8: C. There is not enough information to determine.
Question 9: D. It will move but won't change shape or size.
Question 10: D. Triangle
