Question

making predictions with transformations quick check
if you apply the geometric description of reflections across parallel lines, what transformation can you predict will be part of a composition transformation? (1 point)

○ a rotation
● a translation
○ a dilation
○ a reflection

Explanation:

When reflecting a figure across two parallel lines, the composition of these two reflections results in a translation. A rotation is from reflections over intersecting lines, dilation changes size (not related to parallel line reflections), and a single reflection isn't the composition result here. So the correct prediction is a translation.

Answer:

B. a translation (assuming the options are labeled as A: a rotation, B: a translation, C: a dilation, D: a reflection)
