I’m at a loss.
I honestly needed this comment to get it
The scaled down rectangle should be narrower; it’s not scaled in this diagram, it’s squished.
(Yes I know you can ‘scale’ objects on one axis but that’s usually not how it’s taught on an introductory level. Standard scaling assumes object similarity, which is not present in the diagram’s ‘scaled’ rectangle.)
This is some quality pedantry.
Scaling in 2D has 2 parameters, X and Y, in the example X was at 1 while Y was below 1. You are referring to a subset of scaling transformation where X = Y and the aspect ratio is kept.
Yes, and introductory geometry courses teach students how to do uniform scaling far before they teach them axis-based because it’s better illustrative of the concepts of similarity and congruence
For the first time, I caught loss before loss was pointed out to me 😅
Rotation isn’t even rotation which implies rotating around a point on that rectangle. That’s rotation and translation. Such a loss.
Scaling does not include translation either yet it does here by your logic.
Rotation doesn’t imply the point of rotation is on the rectangle.
Is this loss?
I’m a simple man, I see a Loss meme and I down vote. Shit hasn’t been funny for over a decade, just more hurr durr dumb shit.
Your loss.
Your loss.
Your loss.
