Question

Which of the following statements about a congruence transformation is NOT true?

  1. It changes the position of the figure. 
  2. It changes the size of the figure.
  3. It does not change the size of the figure. 
  4. It maintains the shape of the figure.

hintHint:

Use definition of congruence transformations

The correct answer is: It changes the size of the figure.


    Congruence transformation – In this transformation, a figure is flipped, moved, or reflected from the original image such that it retains same size, shape, angles, and side lengths. The word congruence is derived from the term congruent, which means to keep size and shape same as the original figure.
