What results from the composition of reflections in two parallel lines?
a. glide reflection
b. dilation
c. rotation
d. translation
Would the correct answer be d. translation?
yes the answer is d
thank you :)
ur welcome!!
To answer this question, let's start by understanding what is meant by the composition of reflections in two parallel lines.
When we talk about reflections, we are referring to the transformation that "flips" an object or shape over a line. In this case, we have two parallel lines, which means they will never intersect.
The composition of reflections means that you perform one reflection, and then another reflection. When the second reflection is performed, it is done as though the first reflection never happened.
Now, if we reflect an object or shape twice over two parallel lines, the resulting transformation is a translation.
A translation is a type of transformation that "slides" an object or shape in a particular direction without changing its orientation. It is like picking up the object and moving it to a different location.
Therefore, the correct answer to the question "What results from the composition of reflections in two parallel lines?" is d. translation.
