Question

Which transformation(s) can map BCD onto WXY?

Answer 1

The Answer Is Translation, then rotation

Answer 2

Answer:

c) Translation, then rotation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three types of transformation are defined as:

1. Rotation: When you turn a figure around a point to a certain degree

2. Reflection: When you flip the figure over a line

3. Translation: When you slide a figure in any direction

Now, we have the figure BCD and we need to map it onto figure WXY.

So, from the above three transformations, this mapping is only possible in the following two cases:

I. First we translate the figure BCD to the right and then rotate it counter-clockwise .i.e. Translation, then rotation.

II. First we rotate the figure counter-clockwise and then translate the figure BCD to the right .i.e. Rotation, then translation.

As, in the given options only I is available.

Hence, (C) Translation, then rotation is correct.
