To determine the correct rule that maps Figure A onto Figure B, we need to understand the transformations involved. The rules you've provided indicate different types of transformations, particularly reflections and rotations.

Here's a brief explanation of each option:

  1. ry−axis (Reflection over the y-axis): This transformation reflects points across the y-axis.
  2. rx=0 (Reflection over the x-axis): This transformation reflects points across the x-axis.
  3. R90° (Rotation 90 degrees): This transformation rotates points in the plane 90 degrees counterclockwise.
  4. ry=0 (Reflection over the x-axis): This is the same as rx=0, just named differently.

To select the correct rule, you’d typically analyze the position and orientation of Figure A and Figure B. If one figure appears to be a mirror image of the other, a reflection (ry-axis or rx=0) may be the correct choice. If they seem to be rotated, then R90° would likely be the right choice.

As I don't have visual access to Figures A and B, I can't definitively say which transformation applies. However, if you describe the relationship between the two figures (for example, whether they appear to be flipped or rotated), I can assist you in determining the appropriate transformation.
