Answer:

Triangle DEF

Explanation:

Hi there!

A translation of a shape occurs when all the coordinates of the original image is shifted up, down, left or right by an equal value.

Triangle ABC is a reflection of the grey triangle across the y-axis. We know this because the y-axis acts like a line of symmetry between the two shapes.

Triangle DEF appears as if it's been shifted. Therefore, triangle DEF is a translation of the grey triangle.

I hope this helps!
