Math Reflections

For this 10 point assignment - answer the following questions in COMPLETE sentences and use examples to help support your answer. You could copy and paste these questions onto your blog if you need to and then type your answers in different colors. Write me a comment on this assignment when you finish! :)

1) Think back to Mug Wump - how did you decide which characters were similar to him?
I decided that Bug and Zug Wump were related to Mug Wump because they were the same shape just different sizes. The angles are similar.

2)How did you decided which characters were NOT similar to him?
I decided that the characters that weren’t related to him were fat or really really tall.



3) If I used (x, y) to create Mug and I used (4x, 4y) to create a new character, Pug, how would Pug be similar to Mug? What is the scale factor from Mug to Pug? How many Mugs would fit into one Pug (area)?
Pug would be similar to Mug because you would move x 4 spaces to the right and y 4 spaces up. Pug is 4x bigger
