Which best describes the relationship between polygon GHJK and polygon G'H'J'K?
A. They are similar because polygon G'H'J'K' can
be obtained from polygon GHJK by a sequence
of transformations.
B. They are similar because the area of polygon
G'H'J'K' is the same as the area of polygon
GHJK.
C. They are NOT similar because polygon
G'H'J'K' cannot be obtained from polygon
GHJK in a single transformation.

Answer from: HerecomesDATBOI09

Both the polygons are similar because polygon G'H'J'K' can be obtained from polygon GHJK by a sequence of transformations.

Given :

Polygon GHJK and polygon G'H'J'K'.Coordinates -- G(-6,8), H(-2,4), J(-4,2), K(-8,2), G'(3,-1), H'(1,-3), J'(2,-4), and K'(4,-4).

The distance formula can be used in order to determine the length of segments of the given polygon.

$\rm GH=\sqrt{(-2+6)^2+(4-8)^2} =\sqrt{32}$

$\rm HJ=\sqrt{(-4+2)^2+(2-4)^2} =\sqrt{8}$

$\rm JK=\sqrt{(-8+4)^2+(2-2)^2} =\sqrt{16}=4$

$\rm GK=\sqrt{(-8+6)^2+(2-8)^2} =\sqrt{40}$

$\rm G'H'=\sqrt{(1-3)^2+(-3+1)^2} =\sqrt{8}$

$\rm H'J'=\sqrt{(2-1)^2+(-4+3)^2} =\sqrt{2}$

$\rm J'K'=\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(-4+4)^2} =\sqrt{4}=2$

$\rm G'K'=\sqrt{(-4+1)^2+(4-3)^2} =\sqrt{10}$

Therefore, the correct option is A) They are similar because polygon G'H'J'K' can be obtained from polygon GHJK by a sequence of transformations.

Answer from: bNicholson23

1. A. They are similar because polygon G'H'J'K' can be obtained from polygon GHJK by a sequence of transformation

2. B. Reflection across the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The coordinates of the sides of the polygon are;

G(-6, 8), H(-2, 4), J(-4, 2), and K(-8, 2)

G'(3, -1), H'(1, -3), J'(2, -4), K'(4, -4)

The length, l, of the sides are;

$l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}$

Length of GH = √((8 - 4)² + ((-6) - (-2))²) = 4·√2

Length of HJ = √((2 - 4)² + ((-4) - (-2))²) = 2·√2

Length of JK = √((2 - 2)² + ((-4) - (-8))²) = 4

Length of KG = √((2 - 8)² + ((-8) - (-6))²) = 2·√10

Similarly, we have;

Length of G'H' = √(((-3) - (-1))² + (1 - 3)²) = 2·√2

Length of H'J' = √(((-3) - (-4))² + (1 - 2)²) = √2

Length of J'K' = √(((-4) - (-4))² + ((4)- 2)²) = 2

Length of K'G' = √(((-4) - (-1))² + ((4) - 3)²) = √10

Therefore, the polygon G'H'J'K' can be obtained from the polygon GHJK by scaling down by a factor of 2, and the two polygons are similar

2) Given that the coordinates of figure 2 are (-2, 3) (-3, 5), (-4, 1), and (-6, 1), while the corresponding coordinates of figure 3 are (2, 3), (3, 5), (4, 1), and (6, 1) which is equivalent to a transformation from (x, y) to (-x, y) which is the transformation involved in a reflection across the y-axis

Carla was trying to decide what to do saturday evening. she has $100 available to spend for the evening. she has narrowed her choices down to these events: braves game, a concert of an artist she likes, or the georgia aquarium. admission to the braves game is $25, hot dogs cost $10, sodas cost $5. the concert costs $25 for admission, $20 for a souvernir t-shirt, and $10 for a soda. the georgia aquarium has the show of a lifetime with an all you can eat and drink that costs $100. carla does not want to take any driving chances, so in addition to the cost of the aquarium, she will also need to pay for her uber/lyft, which is $15 each way. which option should carla choose if she wants to spend the least? based on that choice, what then is carla's oppotunity cost? fully explain your answer in at least one paragraph.
