6. Dilations
Sign In
Let's first identify the coordinates of the vertices of polygon FGHJ. Here they are.
The order of a composition of a dilation and a reflection affects the final image. |
Let's take a look at the statement one more time. We know that it is sometimes true.
The order of a composition of a dilation and a reflection affects the final image. |
See that the order of operations matters only when the line of reflection does not pass through the origin. If the line does pass through (0,0), we can perform the operations in any order and the result will always be the same.
