Answer:

rotation, then translation

Explanation:

If you apply a rotation, you get a mirror image.

These triangles are not mirror images of each other.

If you simply rotate and translate one triangle, you can make it become the other triangle. If you reflect one triangle, you can never make it into the other triangle.

Answer: rotation, then translation
