a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.

Answer: 
No. The expressions shown in this problem do not involve multiplying fractions with other fractions, nor whole numbers with fractions.

standard_description: Given two figures, use the definition of similarity in terms of similarity transformations to decide if they are similar; explain using similarity transformations the meaning of similarity for triangles as the equality of all corresponding pairs of angles and the proportionality of all corresponding pairs of sides.
problem_activity: Task
In triangles $ABC$ and $DEF$ below $m(\angle A) = m(\angle D)$, $m(\angle B) = m(\angle E)$ and $|\overline{AB}| = |\overline{DE}|$.

Find a sequence of translations, rotations, and reflections which maps $\triangle ABC$ to $\triangle DEF$.
After working on problem (a), Melissa says
Since $m(\angle A) = m(\angle D)$ and $m(\angle B) = m(\angle E)$ then I also know that $m(\angle C) = m(\angle F)$. So these triangles share all three angles and this is enough to know that they are congruent. I don't need to be told that $|\overline{AB}| = |\overline{DE}|$.
Is Melissa correct that $m(\angle C) = m(\angle F)$? Explain.
Is she right that two triangles sharing three pairs of congruent angles are always congruent? Explain.
Below are two triangles which share three congruent angles: $m(\angle P) = m(\angle T)$, $m(\angle Q) = m(\angle U)$, $m(\angle R) = m(\angle V)$:
