a reflection and a dilation
Reason: the problem states the triangle was reflected then dilated (made smaller). Reflection changes orientation; dilation changes size. The other combinations either don't change size (rotation+reflection) or preserve orientation (rotation+ dilation, translation+ dilation), so only reflection + dilation fits.
