The correct response for changing active voice to passive voice is:
use a form of "to be" plus the past participle of the verb.
In passive voice constructions, the focus shifts from the subject performing the action to the subject receiving the action, and this is achieved by using a form of "to be" with the past participle of the main verb. For example, "The cat chased the mouse." (active voice) can be changed to "The mouse was chased by the cat." (passive voice).
