The triangles are congruent by the SSS congruence theorem.

Triangles L M N and L prime M prime N prime are shown. Triangle L M N is rotated about point L and then is shifted up and to the right to form triangle L prime M prime N prime.

Which transformation(s) can map ΔLMN onto ΔL'M'N'?

translation only
reflection only
rotation then translation
reflection then translation

Rotation then translation.

Reason: the triangle is first rotated about L and then shifted (translated), so a rotation followed by a translation maps ΔLMN to ΔL'M'N'. A reflection (alone or with a translation) or a translation alone cannot produce the described result.
