Which one of Aiko's steps makes a false assumption? Why is it false? Aiko's Proof:
1. Draw 2 rectangles. Label one ABCD and the other PQRS
2. Translate rectangle ABCD by the directed line segment from A to P. A' and P now coincide. The points coincide because that's how we defined
our translation
3. Rotate rectangle A'B'C'D' by angle D'A'S. Segment A"D" now lies on ray PS. The rays coincide because that's how we defined our rotation.
4. Dilate rectangle A"B"C"D" using center A" and scale factor AD. Segments A"D" and PS now coincide. The segments coincide because A" was
the center of the rotation, so A" and P don't move, and since D" and S are on the same ray from A", when we dilate D" by the right scale factor, it
will stay on ray PS but be the same distance from A" as S is, so S and D' will coincide.
5. Because all angles of a rectangle are right angles, segment A'B' now lies on ray PQ. This is because the rays are on the same side of PS and
make the same angle with it (If A'B' and PQ don't coincide, reflect across PS so that the rays are on the same side of PS.)
6. Dilate rectangle A"B"C"D" using center A" and scale factor AB Segments A'"'**" and PQ not coincide by the same reasoning as in step 4.
7. Due to the symmetry of a rectangle, if 2 rectangles coincide on 2 sides, they must coincide on all sides.
