Question

The triangles are congruent by SSS or HL.

Triangles P Q R and S T U are shown. Triangle P Q R is reflected across Q R and then is shifted up and to the right to form triangle S T U.

Which transformation(s) can map TrianglePQR onto TriangleSTU?

translation only
rotation only
rotation, then reflection
reflection, then translation

To determine which transformation(s) can map Triangle PQR onto Triangle STU, we first need to consider the given transformations:

1. **Reflection**: Triangle PQR is reflected across QR.
2. **Translation**: Triangle is then shifted up and to the right.

Given that transformation involves reflecting and then translating, the correct answer would be:

**Reflection, then translation.**

This means that Triangle PQR is first reflected across QR, and then it is translated (shifted) to position it over Triangle STU.
