A:
"Circle 1 has center (−6, 2) and a radius of 8 cm. Circle 2 has center (−1, −4) and a radius 6 cm. What transformations can be applied to Circle 1 to prove that the circles are similar? Enter your answers in the boxes. Enter the scale factor as a fraction in simplest form"The circles are similar because the transformation rule (x+5 y-6) can be applied to Circle 1 and then dilate it using a scale factor of 3/4
