Which sequence of transformations does not preserve distance and angle? rotation and reflectiontranslation and reflectionrotation and dilation
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer: rotation and dilation.
While rotation only rotates (obviously) the figure, dilation preserves the shape of the figure (that is, preserves the angles) but changes the distances: it makes the figure smaller.
The other 2 sequences of transformations only change the position of the figure, but the angles and distances remain intact.
