To find a sequence of rigid transformations that maps rectangle ABCD to rectangle A"B"C"D", we first need to identify what transformations are required. Rigid transformations include translations and reflections.

  1. If rectangle A B C D is reflected over the y-axis, the mapping can be expressed as (x,y)(x,y).
  2. Next, if we need to move the new rectangle (after reflection) down by 4 units, this can be expressed as (x,y)(x,y4).

The complete transformation sequence that maps ABCD to A"B"C"D" can be expressed as a composition of these transformations:

  1. Reflect over the y-axis: (x,y)(x,y)
  2. Translate down by 4 units: (x,y)(x,y4)

In terms of composition, this can be written as:

  1. First reflect: (x,y)(x,y)
  2. Then translate: (x,y)(x,y4)

Putting these operations together, the sequence of transformations is:

(x,y)(x,y)(x,y4)

However, in terms of a single transformation:

The composition can be represented as: (x,y)(x,y4)

Therefore, the answer is: (x,y)(x,y4)

So the final answer is: (x,y)→(−x,y−4).
