Question

The original vertices of a quadrilateral are (-2,3), (4,6), (4,2), and (3, -2). After a transformation, the new coordinates are (-1,1.5), (2,3),(2,1), and (1.5,-1). Are the two images similar? Justify your answer.

Yes the two figures are similar because they are dilated by a scale factor of 1/2.

Answer 2

yes because ever point was divide by 2  basically the new coordinates are halve the size of the original
