100

True or False? Dilations always make a figure smaller. 

False

100

These two things make up the similar figures checklist. 

1) Proportional corresponding sides

2) Equal corresponding angles

100

The sum of all interior angles in a triangle will always equal this number.

What geometric transformations can be used to prove similarity. 

1) Translations

2) Rotations

3) Reflections

4) Dilations

200

300

A turn in math.

Rotation

300

Dilations always produce figures that are either _________ or __________ of the original.

Enlargements, Reductions.

300

Congruent figures are _____ similar. 

(sometimes, always)

always

300

What is the measure of the missing angle?

35^o

400

Describing a translation requires these two things. 

1) Direction

2) Distance

400

Dilations need these two things.

1) Center Point of Dilation
2) Scale Factor

400

Similar figures are ____ congruent. 

(sometimes, always)

sometimes

400

Similar or Not? Why?

Similar

500

Describing a rotation requires these three things. 

1) Center (Point)

2) Rotation angle (Degrees)

3) Direction (Clockwise or Counterclockwise)

500

How will dilating a figure with a scale factor of 1/3 change a figure?

It will make the figure 3 times smaller from the center of dilation.
