To determine the appropriate sequence of rigid transformations that maps rectangle ABCD to rectangle A"B"C"D", we need to analyze the transformations involved.

  1. Reflection: The transformation might involve reflecting the points across a vertical line, which would imply a transformation of the form (x, y) → (-x, y).

  2. Translation: After reflection, the rectangle might be translated upwards or downwards. It seems from the problem that the rectangle A"B"C"D" is shifted compared to ABCD.

Given the options provided, we look for a combination of these transformations.

The provided options include:

  • (x,y)→(−x,y−4)
  • (x,y)→(−x−4,y)
  • (x,y)→(x,y+4)
  • (x,y)→(x,−y−4)

From examining these options, the transformation that makes sense for a reflection followed by a vertical translation appears to be:

\((x,y)→(−x,y−4)\)

This transformation reflects the points across the y-axis (negating the x-coordinate) and then translates the resulting points 4 units down (subtracting 4 from the y-coordinate).

In conclusion, the composition transformation mapping is:

\[ (x,y)→(−x,y−4) \]
