Mario and Russell plot a triangle on a coordinate grid and then perform a
rotation and a translation. Russell thinks the original triangle and final triangle
are congruent but Mario disagrees. Which student is correct and why?
Russell is correct. Since neither rotations no translations preserve distance, the
triangles are congruent.
O Mario is correct. Since neither rotations not translations preserve distance, the
triangles are not congruent.
Mario is correct. Since both rotations and translations preserve distance, the triangles
are congruent.
