Question

identify the transformation. is this a reflection, translation, or rotation? translation reflection rotation

Explanation:

To determine the transformation, we analyze each type:

• Translation: Involves sliding a figure without changing its orientation or shape. The two figures here are not just slid; their orientation is mirrored.
• Reflection: A figure is flipped over a line (axis of reflection), creating a mirror image. The two triangles appear to be mirror images across a vertical (or horizontal) line between them, matching the reflection property.
• Rotation: Involves turning a figure around a point. The orientation here is mirrored, not rotated.

So the transformation is a reflection.

Answer:

reflection
