Figure ABCD is transformed to obtain figure A'B'C'D': A coordinate grid is shown from negative 6 to 6 on both axes at increments of 1. Figure ABCD has A at ordered pair negative 4, 4, B at negative 2, 2, C at negative 2, negative 1, D at negative 4, 1. Figure A prime B prime C prime D prime has A prime at ordered pair 3, negative 4, B prime at 5, negative 2, C prime at 5, 1, D prime at 3, negative 1. Part A: Write the sequence of transformations that changes figure ABCD to figure A'B'C'D'. Explain your answer and write the coordinates of the figure obtained after each transformation. (6

I think that the requested transformation can be written as a composition of a traslation of the shape ABCD along the displacement CA' first, with another transformation am I right? @Marc1313

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please do you know what can be the second transformation, after that traslation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Huh? @Michele_Laino

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

If we make that traslation we get this: |dw:1448390160142:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

now, I ask you, can you say what is the second trasformation which transforms the orange shape into the final shape?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

namely? Please explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i do not understand this

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

for example a reflection about the axis A'D' of 180 degrees, can be the second transformation? |dw:1448390569734:dw|

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops.. I meant: around the axis A'D'...

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please, more precisely, I meant a reflection with respect to the axis A'D', please ignore "180 degrees"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: I think yes, such reflection can be the second transformation, so the requested transformation is a traslation along the displacement CA' followed by a reflection with respect to the axis A'D' am I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i guess
