Question

Graph a triangle (LMN) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle L'M'N'.
Part 1: Describe the transformation using words. (3 points)
Part 2: Draw a line segment from point L to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point L' to the reflecting line. What do you notice about the two line segments you drew? (2 points)
Part 3: Do you think you would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting M with the reflecting line and then M' with the reflecting line? How do you know? (3 points)

Answer 3

This is what I got so far...

Answer 4

Part 1: The coordinates for LMN are:
L = (1, 3)
M = (1, 1)
N = (4, 2)
The points for the reflected triangle L'M'N' are:
L' = (3, 1)
M' = (1, 1)
N' = (2, 4)
Part 2:
The lines are connecting and are straight because it was flipped at a 180* angle.
Part 3:
