proportional segments, we easily deduce that C' lies on OC; in fact,
Varying Figure 4.7A by making 0 recede far away to the left, we
see how a translation arises as the limiting form of a central dilatation
A'B' = kAB when k tends to 1. Still more easily, we can change
Figure 4.7B so as to make 0 the midpoint of AA'; thus the central
dilatation A'B' = -kAB includes, as a special case, the half-turn
A'B' = - AB,

EXERCISES
1. What is the locus of the midpoint of a segment of varying length such
that one end remains fixed while the other end runs around a circle?
2. Given an acute-angled triangle ABC, construct a square with one
side lying on BC while the other two vertices lie on CA and AB,
respectively.
4.8 Spiral similarity
If a figure is first dilated and then translated, the final figure and the
original figure still have corresponding lines parallel, so that the result
is simply a dilatation. More generally, and for the same
of any two dilatations (i.e. the effect of first performing one, then the
other dilatation) is a dilatation. On the other hand, if a figure is first
dilated and then rotated, corresponding lines are no longer parallel.
Thus the sum of a dilatation and a rotation (other than the identity or
a half-turn) is not a dilatation, though it is still a direct similarity,
preserving angles in both magnitude and sign.

TRANSFORMATIONS
The sum of a central dilatation and a rotation about the same center
is called a "dilative rotation" or spiral similarity. This little known
transformation can be used in the solution of many problems.
If, as in Figure 4.8A, a spiral similarity with center O takes AB
to A'B', then AOAB and A0A'B' are directly similar, and
ZAQA' = LBOB'.
