Question

complete the statement. the sequence of transformations maps figure abcd onto its image, so abcd is? to abcd.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the first - step transformation

The rectangle \(ABCD\) is first translated to \(A'B'C'D'\). We can observe that \(ABCD\) is shifted to the left.

Step2: Analyze the second - step transformation

Then \(A'B'C'D'\) is reflected over the \(x\) - axis to get \(A''B''C''D''\). Since a sequence of rigid motions (translation and reflection) is used, the figure \(ABCD\) is congruent to \(A''B''C''D''\).

Answer:

congruent
