Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-values 5, 3, 1 form an arithmetic sequence. The y-values will do the same: 1, 2, a = 1, 2, 3 -- a common difference of +1.
a = 3
It’s gonna be the second option:)
Answer: A. preserves length, angle measures and distance between points
Rigid motions or isometries are any of the three transformations below
- translation (aka shifting)
- rotation
- reflection
Any of those three transformations will keep the figure the same size and shape. That means distances between any two points are kept the same, and angle measures are kept the same as well. Everything is kept the same. The only difference is that the figure is in a different location, is rotated somehow, or it is reflected some way. You can use a series of transformations to undo everything to get the original figure back.
If you wanted to change the size of the figure, then you would apply dilation, which isn't an isometry.
