Rigid transformation is a geometric transformation of a Euclidean space that preserves the Euclidean distance between every pair of points. The rigid transformations include rotations, translations and reflections

Option A is a translation then is rigid

Option B is a rotation then is rigid

Option C is a reflection then is rigid

Option D is a dilation and translation then is not rigid because the dilation is not a rigid transformation because the size of the objects is different

then right o
