Can two quadrilaterals be mapped onto one another using rigid motions?

As long as the two quadrilaterals are congruent, yes.
(Congruency ignores position, including rotation and reflection.)

Are quadrilaterals rigid?
no they are not rigid.
How do you find a sequence of rigid motions for quadrilaterals?
The answer depends on the quadrilateral. Some have rotational symmetry or reflective symmetry and it is not possible to distinguish between these and translations.
What is rigid or semi-rigid?
Rigid is immovable, unbending. Semi-rigid can move in a limited way.
Is the asthenosphere non rigid?
Yes, it is non-rigid.
What is a non rigid shape?
a non rigid is a square and a hexagon

What does it mean to prove that two figures are congruent using rigid motions?
Given two sets of angles and the included side congruent, we seek a sequence of rigid motions that will map Δ_____onto Δ___ proving the triangles congruent.
Why do architects and engineers use so many triangles in construction?
Triangles are rigid, quadrilaterals are not - a square can be "squashed" into rhombus.
Another name for rigid transformation?
isometry
What is another name for rigid?
Stable. Firm.
What is another word for Very Strict?

What is another opposite word for flexible?
inflexible, unyielding, rigid, brittle
What interior layer allows the earth's rigid outer shell to move?
The Mantle of the Earth is the thickest layer, and while solid, contains elements that cause it to be pliable and flowing due to extreme heat and pressure. It undergoes motions similar to boiling water, known as convection. Convection of the mantle is expressed at the surface through the motions of tectonic plates.
Another word you would use for bumpy?
Lumpy rigid hillious ridged texturized
Why reflections translations and rotation are rigid motion s?
Reflections, translations, and rotations are considered rigid motions because they preserve the size and shape of the original figure. These transformations do not distort the object in any way, maintaining the distances between points and angles within the figure. As a result, the object's properties such as perimeter, area, and angles remain unchanged after undergoing these transformations.
What is another word for taut?
stiff, tight, rigid, close, flexed, firm, tense, unyielding
