Answer: The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.

Explanation:

Given : Triangle ABC was rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Then it underwent a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 4.

A rotation is a rigid transformation that creates congruent images but dilation is not a rigid transformation, it creates similar images but not congruent.

Also, the corresponding angles of similar triangles are congruent.

Therefore, The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.
