Question

is this an example of rigid transformation? why or why not?
option 1: this is an example of a rigid transformation because this shows a translation, and translating the preimage creates a congruent image.
option 2: this is not an example of a rigid transformation, because this shows a dilation, and dilating the preimage creates a non - congruent image.
option 3: this is an example of a rigid transformation because this shows reflection, and reflecting the preimage creates a congruent image.

Explanation:

Rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) preserve the shape and size (create congruent images). The figure shows a reflection over the y - axis (the arrow flips across the y - axis). Translation would move without flipping, dilation changes size (non - rigid). So the correct option is the one about reflection as a rigid transformation.

Answer:

This is an example of a rigid transformation because this shows reflection, and reflecting the preimage creates a congruent image.
