Final answer:

To move the triangle from the starting square to the goal square in the grid, you need to follow the given steps: Move forward and rotate right, move backward and rotate left, move left and rotate right, move right and rotate left.

Step-by-step explanation:

To move the triangle from the bottom white square to the gray square, you need to follow the steps:

  1. Move forward and rotate right: Move the triangle one square forward and then rotate it 90 degrees to the right.
  2. Move backward and rotate left: Move the triangle one square backward and then rotate it 90 degrees to the left.
  3. Move left and rotate right: Move the triangle one square to the left and then rotate it 90 degrees to the right.
  4. Move right and rotate left: Move the triangle one square to the right and then rotate it 90 degrees to the left.
