Question

May somebody help me on this question please. Kim performed a transformation on triangle ABC to create triangle A'B'C' as shown in the figure below:

Answer 1

What transformation did Kim perform to create triangle A'B'C'?

Reflection across the x-axis

Rotation of 270 degrees counterclockwise about the origin

Reflection across the y-axis

Rotation of 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin

Answer 2

Did a reflection or rotation take place?

Answer 3

It looks like a reflection

Answer 4

correct (notice how the orientation is flipped)

Answer 5

to go from A to B to C, you go counter clockwise

but to go from A' to B' to C', you're going the opposite way: clockwise

so that's what I mean by "orientation is flipped"

Answer 6

whenever you have orientation reversed, you're going to have a reflection (since everything is backwards)

Answer 7

so you need to find out which line you're reflecting over

Answer 8

So in this case the answer would be C

Answer 9

@jim_thompson5910

Answer 10

draw an xy axis and label them

Answer 11

Ohh so its A because it reflected itself that way @jim_thompson5910

Answer 12

yes that is correct
