Which of these triangle pairs can be mapped to each other using a single translation?

A
Triangles C E D and C N P are congruent. Triangle C E D is rotated about point C and then reflected across a line to form triangle C N P.
Option A
B
Triangles C N E and C E D are congruent. Triangle C N E is reflected across a line and then rotated slightly to form triangle C E D.
Option B
C
Triangles C E D and M D P are congruent. Triangle M D P is rotated and shifted up to form triangle C E D.
Option C
D
Triangles C E D and M P N are congruent. Triangle C E D is shifted to the right to form triangle M P N.
Option D
