Answer 1

To determine the combination of transformations shown when moving the shape from position 1 to position 2 and from position 2 to position 3, we need to analyze the nature of the changes in the positions of the shape.

1. **From Shape 1 to Shape 2**: If the shape appears to be flipped over a line (such as a vertical or horizontal axis), this indicates a reflection. If it appears to have been rotated around a point (but remains in the same overall size and orientation, just turned), then it indicates rotation.

2. **From Shape 2 to Shape 3**: Similar to the first transformation, we look for a flip (which would indicate a reflection) or a rotation (again indicating rotation around a point) or possibly a translation (moving without alteration).

To classify the transformations accurately, it would require visualizing or having a specific description of how the shape changes between these positions.

However, without seeing the shapes or knowing more information about how they move from one to the next, it's difficult to definitively state which transformations apply.

If, for example:

- Shape 1 to Shape 2 is a reflection, and Shape 2 to Shape 3 is a rotation, then the answer would be "reflection, then rotation."
- If both movements are rotations, the answer would be "rotation, then rotation."

To finalize the answer accurately, you would need to observe or describe the specific changes in position or orientation between these shapes. If you have more details or a visual reference, I can help analyze that information!
