Answer 1

I assume that "IsChecked" property is Boolean. In order to bind Visibility property you must bind to Visibility type property or use converter.

If you don't want to use converter you need to declare Visibility notification property:

    private Visibility isChecked= Visibility.Visible;
    public Visibility IsChecked
    {
        get { return isChecked; }
        set
        {
            isChecked = value;
            RaisePropertyChanged("IsChecked");
        }
    }

If you want to stay with your Boolean parameter, use Visibility converter

Answer 2

Two things wrong here. First, you need to assign a Name to the RadioButton you want to use as binding source and use that for the binding's ElementName property.

<RadioButton x:Name="radioButton1" ... />

Then your binding also needs a converter from bool to Visibility. You could use WPF's BooleanToVisibilityConverter:

<Window.Resources>
    <BooleanToVisibilityConverter x:Key="BooleanToVisibilityConverter"/>
</Window.Resources>radia

<Image Visibility="{Binding IsChecked, ElementName=radioButton1,
                    Converter={StaticResource BooleanToVisibilityConverter}}" ... />
