Question
imagine figure abcd is translated two units to the right and rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin to form figure abcd.
which statement is true about the two figures?
the figures are similar.
it is impossible to determine similarity or congruence without seeing a visual representation of the sequence of transformations.
the figures are neither similar or congruent.
the figures are congruent.
Translations and rotations are rigid transformations, which preserve the size and shape of a figure. Congruent figures have identical size and shape, while similar figures have the same shape but may differ in size. Since only rigid transformations are applied, the original and transformed figures are congruent (and also similar, but congruence is a stronger, accurate statement here).
