To determine the sequence of steps used to move the triangle in Quadrant IV to the triangle in Quadrant II, we need to analyze the movements involved:
-
Reflection: The triangle in Quadrant IV has points with positive x-coordinates and negative y-coordinates. To move this triangle to Quadrant II, we can first reflect it over the y-axis. This will change the signs of the x-coordinates, moving points from Quadrant IV to Quadrant III.
-
Translation: The next step involves translating the reflected triangle from Quadrant III to Quadrant II. This involves moving the triangle to the left across the y-axis.
Given this analysis, the correct sequence of steps to show that the triangles are congruent is reflection, then translation.
