I will medal, fan and write a testimonal What set of reflections and rotations would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself?

OpenStudy (arivillafana):

Rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis, reflect over the line y=x Reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis Rotate 180°, reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the line y=x Reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did you test any of it?

OpenStudy (arivillafana):

@Shalante i dont understand what it is: ABCD onto itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try that type of method

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe not exactly the same as me, but ya know...try those patterns

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thought it meant it would need to go back to the position and quadrant it began

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats what it means

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Onto itself means going back to its won position. (The one that is shown in the problem)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

own*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it doesn't necessarily need to end up in the same quadrant it began in?...just needs to be the same position?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

j/k you've rotated it 180 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it has to end up where it started...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Position depends on the quadrant

OpenStudy (arivillafana):

so would it be the third one ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A negative position in the x direction would have to be in the 2nd or 3rd quadrant. A positive position in the x direction would have to be in the 1st or 4th quadrant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it would be the fourth one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Show me your work and I will confirm it.
