PLEASE HELP!!! I WILL FAN AND MEDAL!!! Suppose quadrilateral ABCD has been transformed by ry = x. What are the coordinates for the vertices of the reflected quadrilateral A’B’C’D’?

how would i do this one???????????????????????????????????????? @Cas_fangirl_14

OpenStudy (sarhamby1227):

what does ry= x mean??

OpenStudy (mathmate):

The transformation \(R_{x=y}\) has the rule: \(R_{x=y}: (x,y)->(y,x)\) Follow the rule for each vertex of the quadrilateral and you'll get your A'B'C'D'. For example, if P(4,2), then P'(2,4) \(R_{x=y}: (4,2)->(2,4)\) ... and so on.

OpenStudy (sarhamby1227):

thank you!!!!

OpenStudy (mathmate):

By the way, I assumed your r stands for reflection.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

You're welcome! :)

OpenStudy (sarhamby1227):

wait with ry+x what would that be?? same thing like (2,4) = (4,2)??? @mathmate

OpenStudy (sarhamby1227):

***ry=x

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Sorry, I should have put y=x. X=y was a mistake, although it (happens to) means the same thing. ** \(R_{y=x}: (x,y)->(y,x)\)

okay thanks!
