A sequence of transformations maps ∆ABC to ∆A′B′C′. The sequence of transformations that maps ∆ABC to ∆A′B′C′ is a reflection across the(a.y-axis, b.x-axis, c.line y=x, d.line y=-x) followed by a translation (a.4 units to the right and 10 units up, b. 8 units to the right and 4 units up, c. 10 units to the right and 2 units up, d. 10 units to the right and 4 units up) pls help ive been stuck on this question for days

OpenStudy (welshfella):

I cant do this one. Are you sure you have the question right?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Oh hold on . I think the first part is a refection in the line y = x

OpenStudy (welshfella):

|dw:1467386273711:dw|

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Yes thats correct Now what do you think the translation is?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

we need to figure out what the coordinates of C' we cant guess them form the diagram i've drawn which is only a rough one.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the line does not pass throughthe origin as ive drawn it.

OpenStudy (ariannemily5621):

well when i got help from my teacher he'd said 4 units to the right and 10 units up but i think he may have given me the incorrect answer bcos i got it wrong :/

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the point C has coordinates (-4,2) and a reflection of this in the line y=x will be at (2,-4) beacause a line perpendicular to it as equation y = -x

OpenStudy (welshfella):

so for this point to get tom C' in your duagram the translation will be 10 units to the right and how many units up?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

* get to

OpenStudy (ariannemily5621):

4 units up?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

right

OpenStudy (ariannemily5621):

AHHH thanks so the answer is line y=x and 10 units to the right and 4 units up?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

because we are going from 2 to 12 in x direstion and from -4 to 0 in the y driection

OpenStudy (welshfella):

yes

OpenStudy (ariannemily5621):

thanks so much!!!!! you really helped

OpenStudy (welshfella):

good yw
