Which error did Shonda make in the attached images? Ty

Shonda was curious if segments W X and Y Z were congruent, so she tried to map one figure onto the
other using transformations:
W
Transcribed Image Text:Shonda was curious if segments W X and Y Z were congruent, so she tried to map one figure onto the other using transformations: W
Shonda concluded:
"It's not possible to map WX onto Y Z using a sequence of rigid transformations, so the segments are not
congruent."
What error did Shonda make in her conclusion?
Choose 1 answer:
One more transformation- a rotation -would map WX onto YZ. So the segments are
A
congruent.
One more transformation - a reflection – would map WX onto Y Z.So the segments are
B
congruent.
C
There is no error. This is a correct conclusion.
