C) translation, then reflection.
The sequence of steps used to move the triangle from quadrant four to quadrant two can be described as follows:
1) Translation: The triangle is moved to the right by 8 units and down by 2 units to the new position.
- A (-5, 5) is translated to (3, 3)
- B (-5, 3) is translated to (3, 1)
- C (-1, 3) is translated to (7, 1)
2) Reflection: The triangle is then reflected across the y-axis to obtain the final position.
- A (3, 3) is reflected to (-3, 3)
- B (3, 1) is reflected to (-3, 1)
- C (7, 1) is reflected to (-7, 1)
Therefore, the correct answer is C) translation, then reflection.
Describe the sequence of steps, used to move the triangle to quadrant four to the triangle in quadrant two to show the triangles are congruent. Original position was A (-5, 5) B (-5, 3) C (-1, 3) new position A (3, 3) B (3, 1) C (7, 1)
A reflection then translation
B translation, then transformation
C translation, then reflection
D rotation, then translation
