Answer: C) ΔUVW and ΔRST are congruent

Explanation:

  • Rigid motions move a geometric figure but do not change the size and shape of the figure.
  • It produces congruent images.

There are four kinds of rigid transformation.

1) translation 2) reflection 3) rotation 4) glide reflection.

If a series of rigid motions maps ΔUVW onto ΔRST.

Then, ΔUVW and ΔRST must be congruent. (No change in size or shape)

hence, the correct statement is C) ΔUVW and ΔRST are congruent.
