If a figure has the same orientation, that means it was not reflected in any way. so you know it's a reflection. and since it was reflected, it has an opposite orientation. So your answer would be A. opposite orientation reflection.

The correct answer is:

A. opposite orientation reflection

Explanation:

The orientation of a figure is the way it is turned.  If these two figures are turned the same way, the face on the quarter would be facing the same direction in both coins.  However, they are not; they are facing opposite directions.  This means that the figures have opposite orientations.

A reflection would "flip" the image so that it is facing the opposite way, or have the opposite orientation; thus this is a result of a reflection.
