Figure A A is the original drawing and figure B B is the image.\newlineUse the ruler to measure side lengths.\newline(a) Does the original (A) to the image (B) represent an enlargement, a reduction, or are A \mathrm{A} and B \mathrm{B} congruent?\newlineAB A \rightarrow B \newlineEnlargement\newlineAB A \rightarrow B \newlineReduction\newlineA A and B B Congruent
  1. Measure Side Lengths: Step 11: Measure the side lengths of corresponding sides in figures A and B using a ruler. \newline- Let's say side ABAB in figure A measures 5cm5\,\text{cm} and side ABA'B' in figure B measures 10cm10\,\text{cm}.
  2. Compare Side Lengths: Step 22: Compare the side lengths of A to B.\newline- Since side ABA'B' (10cm10\,\text{cm}) is twice the length of side ABAB (5cm5\,\text{cm}), the ratio of the sides is 105=2\frac{10}{5} = 2.
  3. Determine Transformation Type: Step 33: Determine the type of transformation based on the ratio.\newline- A ratio greater than 11 (22 in this case) indicates that figure BB is larger than figure AA.\newline- This means the transformation from AA to BB is an enlargement.
