proivde a short 1-2 sentance response at a 8th grade reading level

Part a: I agree with Jessica because a rotation and a translation can be used to align one figure with the other since they are congruent shapes. 

Part b: I disagree with Nylah because reflections alone cannot map one figure onto the other; a rotation or translation is also needed to align them.

Would you like any further details or have questions? 

Here are 5 related questions you might find helpful:
1. What is the difference between rotation and reflection?
2. Can two congruent figures always be mapped using a single transformation?
3. How do translations change the position of a figure?
4. What is the definition of congruent shapes in geometry?
5. Can a combination of transformations map any shape onto its congruent counterpart?

**Tip**: In geometry, congruent figures can be mapped onto each other using transformations such as rotations, translations, or reflections, depending on their orientation.

Part a: Jessica believes a rotation and a translation can be used to map one figure onto the other. Do you agree or disagree with her? Explain your answer.
Part b: Nylah believes reflections only can be used to map one figure onto the other. Do you agree or disagree with her? Explain your answer.

This problem explores the use of rotations, translations, and reflections to map congruent figures onto one another. Ideal for Grade 8 students, it covers core geometric concepts of transformations and congruent figures with practical examples.
