Question

Triangle DEF is congruent to TriangleGHJ by the SSS theorem. Which rigid transformation is required to map TriangleDEF onto TriangleGHJ? dilation reflection rotation translation

Answer 1

D. Translation

Explanation:

Answer 2

Translation

Explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Rigid transformation are transformations that preserve the shape and size of an object. That means that they produce an image which is congruent to the object. Examples of rigid transformation is rotation, reflection and translation. Dilation is not a rigid transformation because it does not preserve the shape and size of the object.

From the image attached, we can see that Triangle DEF is translated to the right and downwards so as to map triangle DEF onto triangle GHJ
