Which composition of transformations will create a pair of similar, not congruent triangles? A) a rotation, then a reflectionB) a translation, then a rotationC) a reflection, then a translationD) a rotation, then a dilation

A rotation, then a dilation ⇒ answer D

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some facts on transformation

- A transformation is a change in the position, size, or shape of a

geometric figure

- There are four main types of transformations: translation, rotation,

reflection and dilation

- A rotation, translation, or reflection, does not change the size or

shape of the figure

- Rotation, reflection and translation give congruent figures

- A dilation change the size of the figure by shrinks or enlarges it

- A composition of transformations is a combination of two or more

transformations

- A similarity transformation is two rigid transformations reflection,

followed by dilation or rotation, followed by dilation or translation

followed by a dilation

∴ composition of transformations will create a pair of similar, not

congruent triangles is a rotation, then a dilation
