Triangle A B C is reflected across side A C and then is dilated to form smaller triangle D C E. Angles B C A and D C E are right angles.

Question illustration
A
The triangles are not similar because only one pair of corresponding angles is congruent.
B
The triangles are similar because all right triangles can be mapped to each other using a series of transformations.
C
The triangles are not similar because they share a common segment and vertex.
D
The triangles are similar because all pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
