Question

the triangles are congruent by sss and hl. which transformation(s) can be used to map △rst onto △vwx? reflection only translation only reflection, then translation rotation, then translation

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze triangle orientation

The orientation of $\triangle RST$ is different from $\triangle VWX$. A reflection is needed to change the orientation.

Step2: Consider position

After reflection, the triangles are not in the same position, so a translation is required to map one - triangle onto the other.

Answer:

reflection, then translation
