Question

Which combination of transformations can you use to show that one shape is congruent to another?

A. dilations and reflections

B. reflections and stretches

C. rotations and translations

D. reflections, dilations, and translations

E. rotations, translations, and dilationsANSWER -

ANSWER -

The correct answer to this is:

ROTATIONS AND TRANSLATIONS

Reflection and rotation can also be used but since their both grouped with dilations, they can't be used. When dilation is used, the size of the shape is changed and congruence won't be possible anymore . That's why the answer is the first option.
