Question

now look at triangles b and c. which type of transformation takes triangle b to triangle c? transformation 1: translate 3 units down

Explanation:

Step1: Recall transformation definitions

Translation: sliding a figure without rotation or reflection. Reflection: flipping a figure over a line. Rotation: turning a figure around a point.

Step2: Analyze triangle B to C

Check if it's a flip (reflection). There is a line \(n\) (vertical dashed line). Triangle B is flipped over this line to get triangle C. It's not a slide (translation) as orientation relative to the line changes. Not a rotation as there's no turning around a point but a flip over a line.

Answer:

Reflection
