Jason states that . Kelley states that . Which best describes the accuracy of the congruency statements?

Question illustration
A
Jason’s statement is correct. RST is the same orientation, shape, and size as ABC.
B
Both statements could be correct. RST could be the result of two translations of ABC. TSR could be the result of a rotation and a translation of ABC.
C
Both statements could be correct. RST could be the result of two translations of ABC. TSR could be the result of a reflection and a translation of ABC.
D
Kelley’s statement is correct. TSR is the same orientation, shape, and size as ABC.

A teacher asks students to determine the accuracy of this statement.A reflection over the x-axis and then over the y-axis results in the same transformation as a 180 rotation about the origin of the original figure.Kwame’s explanation of the accuracy of the statement is shown below.Step 1: Choose the vertices of a pre-image: (1, 2), (1, 4), (2, 3). Step 2: Reflect the pre-image over the x-axis: (1, –2), (1, –4), (2, –3).Step 3: Reflect the figure from step 2 over the y-axis: (–1, 2), (–1, 4), (–2, 3).Step 4: Rotate the pre-image 180: (–1, –2), (–1, –4), (–2, –3).Step 5: Compare the reflected figure to the rotated figure. The vertices are not located in the same place, therefore the statement made by the teacher is inaccurate.Which best explains Kwame’s solution?

Question illustration
A
Kwame’s explanation and solution are incorrect. He reflected the image over the y-axis in step 2 and the x-axis in step 3, instead of the reverse.
B
Kwame’s explanation and solution are incorrect. He reflected the pre-image at step 3, rather than the figure from step 2.
C
Kwame’s explanation and solution are incorrect. When reflecting over the x- and y-axes, he negated the incorrect coordinate in the ordered pair.
D
Kwame’s explanation and solution are incorrect. The coordinates of the rotated figure should be switched and negated, not just negated.

Question illustration
A
a reflection over the x-axis and then a reflection over the y-axis
B
a reflection over the y-axis and then a reflection over the x-axis
C
a 90 clockwise rotation about the origin and then a 90 counterclockwise rotation about the origin
Option C
D
a translation 6 units right and then a reflection over the x-axis
E
a translation 4 units down and then a reflection over the y-axis

The vertices A(–2, –1), B(–3, 2), C(–1, 3), and D(0, 0) form a parallelogram. The vertices A’(–1, –2), B’(2, –3), C’(3, –1), and D’(0, 0) are the image of the parallelogram after a sequence of transformations. Which sequence of transformations could produce the image from the pre-image?

A
a reflection over the x-axis and then a reflection over the y-axis
B
a reflection over the y-axis and then a 90 clockwise rotation about the origin
Option B
C
a 90 clockwise rotation about the origin and then a reflection over the y-axis
Option C
D
a 90 counterclockwise rotation about the origin and then a reflection over the x-axis
Option D
