Here are the coordinates for all the triangles to help you draw the labeled graph: Original Triangle ABC: A(1, 2) B(3, 4) C(2, 0) First Image A'B'C' (after translation): A'(-2, 3) B'(0, 5) C'(-1, 1) Second Image A''B''C'' (after reflection): A''(2, 3) B''(0, 5) C''(1, 1) Third Image A'''B'''C''' (after rotation): A'''(-3, 2) B'''(-5, 0) C'''(-1, 1) Final Image A''''B''''C'''' (after enlargement): A''''(-6, 4) B''''(-10, 0) C''''(-2, 2) To create the labeled graph, plot these points on a coordinate plane and connect the vertices for each triangle. Label each triangle clearly as ABC, A'B'C', A''B''C'', A'''B'''C''', and A''''B''''C''''. Regarding the comparison of perimeters from the previous step: Step 5: Compare the perimeter of ABC and A''''B''''C''''. The perimeter of ABC is P_ABC = sqrt(8) + sqrt(17) + sqrt(5). The final transformation from A'''B'''C''' to A''''B''''C'''' is an enlargement with a scale factor of k=2. All previous transformations (translation, reflection, rotation) are rigid transformations, meaning they preserve length and shape. Therefore, A'''B'''C''' has the same perimeter as ABC. When a shape is enlarged by a scale factor k, its perimeter is multiplied by k. So, the perimeter of A''''B''''C'''' is k times the perimeter of ABC. P_A''''B''''C'''' = 2 × P_ABC P_A''''B''''C'''' = 2 × (sqrt(8) + sqrt(17) + sqrt(5)) Numerically: P_ABC ≈ 2.828 + 4.123 + 2.236 ≈ 9.187 units P_A''''B''''C'''' ≈ 2 × 9.187 ≈ 18.374 units The perimeter of A''''B''''C'''' is twice the perimeter of ABC.
