Find a sequence of rigid transformations and dilations that takes square \(ABCD\) to square \(EFGH\).
Translate by the directed line segment \(AE\), which will take \(B\) to a point \(B’\). Then rotate with center \(E\) by angle \(B’EF\). Finally, dilate with center \(E\) by a scale factor of \(\frac{5}{2}\).
Translate by the directed line segment \(AE\), which will take \(B\) to a point \(B’\). Then rotate with center \(E\) by angle \(B’EF\). Finally, dilate with center \(E\) by a scale factor of \(\frac{2}{5}\).
Dilate, using center \(E\), by a scale factor of \(\frac25\).
