Challenge Problem
G.CO.2 8. The starting points are (–4, 1), (1, 1), (–1, –2), and (–3, –1). It may be easier to use algebra to determine the new coordinates, and then plot the four new points.
If each x-value is transformed to 3x + 2 and each y-value is transformed to 4y – 3, the new points will be (–10, 1), (5, 1), (–1, –11), and (–7, –7).
Figure A' shows the transformed image, and figure A shows the original.
The resulting motion is non-rigid. It has changed the edge lengths and area a great deal. This transformation is a mix of stretches and translations. It stretches the horizontal coordinates by a factor of 3, and stretches the y-coordinates by a factor of 4. It also shifts the (resulting) x-coordinates 2 units to the right and the resulting y-coordinates 3 units down.

G.CO.5 5. There are many possible solutions. As long as the final image has the same coordinates as A"B"C" in the original graph, the solution is valid. Here is one possible series of transformations.
I also used a translation and then a rotation, but both different from the original transformations. First, I translated the figure up 8 units. Then I rotated the figure 180º about the point (–3, 4), which is the center of the second image. These transformations result in the exact same image as A"B"C".
G.CO.5 6. There are many possible sequences of transformations, including a sequence in two steps. Here is one possible sequence of transformations.
First, rotate the figure 180º about the origin: R(0, 0), 180°.
Second, translate the figure 3 units up and 3 units right: T(x, y) = (x + 3, y + 3).

Rigid Transformation Definition Properties Examples
Reflection A reflection, rm, is a
transformation that maps every point Q in a plane to a point Q' across a fixed line of reflection m, such that line m is the perpendicular bisector of segment QQ'.
Properties of reflections:

Rotation A rotation, RP,f,
is a transformation that moves every point Q in a plane through a fixed angle f about a given center P, producing a new point Q'. Point Q' is on the circle with center P and radius PQ.
Positive rotations are counterclockwise—the same way that the quadrants are numbered.
Properties of rotations:
• Rotations do not change segment lengths.
• Rotations do not change angle measures.
• Parallel lines remain parallel.
• Circles remain as circles.
• The center point is the only point not moved by a rotation.
• Rotations do not change the orientation of the vertices of a polygon.

G.CO.2 3. A rigid motion is a transformation of a figure that:
• Maps lines onto lines
• Maps a segment onto a segment of the same length
• Maps an angle to an angle of the same measure
• Maps parallel lines onto parallel lines
A rigid motion is a transformation that does not change the size or shape of a figure. The original figure and the transformed figure are congruent.
Rigid Transformation Definition Properties Examples
Translation A translation, Th, k
, is a transformation that moves a point P = (x, y) in the coordinate plane to the point P' = (x + h, y + k).
Properties of translations:
• Translations do not change segment lengths.
• Translations do not change angle measures.
• Parallel lines stay parallel.
• Circles stay circles.
• There are no points that are not moved by a translation.
• Translations do not change the orientation of vertices of a polygon.

G.CO.7 7. You can determine that each pair of sides and each pair of angles are congruent.
AB ≅ BD and AC ≅ DC. BC is shared by both triangles.
∠A and ∠D have the same measure, and since they are between corresponding sides of equal length, they are corresponding angles. Likewise, ∠ABC and ∠DBC have the same measure and are corresponding angles because they are between two pairs of corresponding sides. And the remaining corresponding pair of angles, ∠DCB and ∠ACB, also have equal measures.
Therefore, ∆ABC and ∆DBC are congruent because the corresponding angles and sides are congruent.

You can also determine the angle measures by comparing the slopes of the sides. For example, you can show that both triangles are right triangles by comparing the slope of side DE to side EF and the slope of side GH to side HI.
The slope of side DE is −1
2, and the slope of side EF is 2. Since these slopes are
negative reciprocals of each other, the angle they make must measure 90°.
Similarly, the slope of side GH is 1
2, and the slope of side HI is –2. These slopes are
also negative reciprocals of each other, so the angle they make must measure 90°.
You know the m∠DFE = m∠GIH because that is given. Because the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180°, and you know two pairs of corresponding angles are equal, the third pair of corresponding angles must also be equal.

G.CO.7 3. The triangles are congruent by SAS. Sides BC and DC are both equal to 5 cm. The 90° angles are congruent, and both triangles share the side CA, which must be congruent to itself. Thus, ∆ABC and ∆ADC are congruent.
G.CO.7 4. The triangles are not congruent. Although both have two sides that are radii of the circle, the given segment lengths of AB = 5 cm and DE = 8 cm make it impossible for the triangles to be congruent.
G.CO.7 5. The triangles are congruent by ASA. The given 40° and 22° angles match on both triangles: ∠ABC ≅ ∠DCB and ∠ACB ≅ ∠DBC. Also, the two triangles share the side BC, which must be congruent to itself. Therefore, ∆ABC and ∆DCB are congruent.
G.CO.7 6. The triangles are congruent by SAS. You know all four segments from the center to the circle are congruent, since they are all radii of the circle. This means that CA ≅ CB ≅ CE ≅ CD.
Since BE is a diameter, BC and CE form a straight line, making ∠BCA supplementary to ∠ACE and ∠ECD supplementary to ∠DCB. Since ∠ACE ≅ ∠DCB, that means ∠BCA ≅ ∠ECD.
So, CB ≅ CD, ∠BCA ≅ ∠ECD, and CA ≅ CE. Therefore, the triangles are congruent by SAS.
G.CO.7 7. The triangles are congruent by SSS. All three corresponding side lengths are congruent. Therefore, the triangles must be congruent.
G.CO.7 8. Knowing that AC ≅ DF shows congruence by SSS, and knowing that ∠ABC ≅ ∠DEF shows congruence by SAS.

G.CO.6 9. You could show the congruence using either method. The simpler one might be to show that trapezoid ABCD can be translated 5 units to the right to map directly onto trapezoid EFGH. The coordinates are as follows:
A = (2, 4), B = (4, 3), C = (4, 0), D = (2, –1)
By adding 5 to every x-coordinate, you get the exact coordinates of trapezoid EFGH:
E = (7, 4), F = (9, 3), G = (9, 0), H = (7, –1)
You could also use the coordinate plane to help determine all of the side lengths and angles in order to prove the congruence.

G.CO.7 5. The two triangles are congruent by ASA. Line AC is a transversal that cuts through both pairs of parallel lines in the figure. The transversal creates opposite interior angles that are congruent:
∠BAC ≅ ∠ACD and ∠DAC ≅ ∠BCA.
Also, the two triangles share AC as a side, which is in between the two known congruent angle pairs. AC must be congruent to itself, so the triangles are congruent.
G.CO.7 6. You cannot prove the triangles congruent with the given information. Therefore the triangles are not considered congruent.
You can get two congruent corresponding parts with the given ∠DAC ≅ ∠CAB and the shared side length AC. However, this information is not enough to conclude that the triangles are congruent.
G.CO.7 7. The triangles are congruent by SSS. You know all segments from the center P to a vertex of the pentagon are congruent, and you know that all edges of the pentagon are congruent as well. This gives you PC ≅ PB ≅ PD ≅ PE and also BC ≅ DE, which shows congruence by SSS.
You can also use the central angles of the pentagon to show congruence. Since it is a regular pentagon, you know all of the central angles are congruent, so ∠CPB ≅ ∠DPE. Therefore, you have congruence by SAS.
G.CO.7 8. You cannot prove the triangles congruent with the given information. Therefore the triangles are not considered congruent. They share the side length BC. The measure of ∠ABC is given, but there is no other information that can be obtained. The 60° angle is not duplicated anywhere since no lines are specified as being parallel.

The triangles are not congruent because the corresponding sides are not congruent.
Here is another solution to this problem.
The triangles are not congruent. Both ∆ABD and ∆DBH have right angles, because the sides of a cube are perpendicular to each other, and since a triangle can only have one right angle, the two triangles can only be congruent if the right angles ∠BDH and ∠BAD correspond to each other. We know that AD ≅ AB ≅ DH because all edges of a cube are congruent, so DH could correspond to either leg of ∆ABD, and we just need to show that DB also has the same length. But DB is the hypotenuse of the right triangle ∆ABD, so DB > AB and DB > AD. DB is not congruent to either of the sides it could possibly correspond to, so the triangles are not congruent.

Another type of axis of rotational symmetry can be found by drawing a line connecting the midpoint of one edge to the midpoint of the opposite edge in the tetrahedon. This axis of rotational symmetry has order 2, and there are three such axes of symmetry. Therefore there are seven axes of rotational symmetry..

B The triangles are congruent by ASA.
D The triangles are congruent because ∆HGD is a rigid motion transformation of ∆EFD.
G.CO.8 4. ∆JKL is not congruent to ∆MNO. There are many ways to show this. As long as you show that one of the corresponding pairs of sides or angles do not match, you prove that the triangles are not congruent.
The length of side JK is 4 units, and the length of side MN = ≈2 5 4 47. units, which you can find by using the Pythagorean Theorem between points M and N.
Let length of side MN = c.
22 + 42 = c2
4 + 16 = c2
20 = c2
20 4 47≈ .
Since these corresponding sides do not have the same length, the triangles are not congruent with vertices in the order stated. You can confirm that they are not congruent in any orientation by finding the lengths of the other two sides of ∆JKL, 5 and 41, neither of which equals 2 5, so MN has no possible corresponding side in ∆JKL. Thus, the triangles are not congruent in any orientation.
G.CO.7 5. The triangles are congruent by SAS. Since point M is the midpoint of line segment AB, you know AM ≅ BM. Since ∠BMC and ∠AMC are supplementary and ∠BMC is given as a right angle, ∠BMC ≅ ∠AMC. They have one side in common, MC. This information is sufficient to say the triangles are congruent by SAS.
