Which of these triangle pairs can be mapped to each other using a translation and a rotation about point A?

Question illustration
A
Triangles Q R A and K P A are connected at point A. Triangle K P A is rotated to form triangle Q R A.
Option A
B
Triangles Q R A and K P L are shown. Triangle Q R A is reflected and then shifted to the right to form triangle K P L.
Option B
C
