Is there a dilation or a combination of dilations and rigid motions that maps one figure onto the other?
Yes, see solution.
Practice makes perfect
Let's start by paying close attention to the given figures.
It appears as though these figures may be similar. Let's try to find a dilation or a sequence of dilations and rigid motions that maps one figure onto the other.
We found a dilation that maps one figure onto the other. Therefore, the figures are similar.
