Question

Triangles R S T and X Y T are congruent. Triangle R S T is reflected across a line and then rotated at point T to form triangle X Y T. Is there a series of rigid transformations that could map ΔRST to ΔXYT? If so, which transformations could be used? No, ΔRST and ΔXYT are congruent but ΔRST cannot be mapped to ΔXYT using a series rigid transformations. No, ΔRST and ΔXYT are not congruent. Yes, ΔRST can be reflected across the line containing RT and then rotated about T so that S is mapped to Y. Yes, ΔRST can be translated so that S is mapped to Y and then rotated about S so that R is mapped to X.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Yes, ΔRST can be reflected across the line containing RT and then rotated about T so that S is mapped to Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rigid transformations are processes that can be applied to change the orientation or size of a given object, while its shape is maintained. Examples are; rotation, reflection, dilation and translation.

To map ΔRST to ΔXYT, the rigid transformations required are; reflection and rotation. ΔRST can be reflected across the line containing RT and then rotated about T so that S is mapped to Y.

Therefore, option C is correct from the given question.
