Question

Graph a triangle (LMN) and rotate it 180° around the origin to create triangle L′M′N′.


Describe the transformation using words. Make sure you refer to the characteristics and the coordinates.
Draw a line through points L and L′ and through M and M′. What do you notice about the lines you drew? Do you think you would notice the same characteristics if you drew another line through points N and N′? How do you know?

Answer 1

Welcome to questioncove o;

Answer 2

You didn't put a picture or anything, but I can tell you the basics
When you rotate something 180 degrees around the origin, just change all the signs
ex. (1,2) -> (-1,-2)
(3,-1) -> (-3,1)

Answer 3

thx

Answer 4

it doesn't have a picture

Answer 5

How about the coordinate points
you can't flip nothing..... lol

Answer 6

nope nothing, that's the question itself

Answer 7

OHH, it says graph 'a' triangle'
So just choose 3 random coordinate points that can be made into a triangle

Answer 8

And then write down those coordinate, and then rotate it 180 degrees

Answer 9

uh where exactly can I graph it two

Answer 10

too*

Answer 11

Just graph it on desmos or something
the question just wants description, not the actual thing, so, just graph 3 points on desmos, write them down, and then write down teh coordinates when it rotates 180 degrees

Answer 12

For example, i could do

Answer 13

And then, to rotate it 180 degrees, i flip all the signs and get

Answer 14

And then drawing a line, since i'm on desmos, i'll just do a linear equation
do you see how they go through the origin

Answer 15

okay so I put these points

Answer 16

are they good?

Answer 17

Sure, any points that make a triangle works

and so now flip all the signs

Answer 18

uh- how do I do dat two

Answer 19

twt*

Answer 21

The numbers stay the same, but positive turns negative, negative turns positive

Answer 22

ah I see

Answer 23

alright I did it

Answer 24

Post the image

Answer 25

is that right?

Answer 26

yep that's correct

Answer 27

alright so the draw the line part, how do I do dat?

Answer 28

Eh, this kind of just looks like how good you are with linear equations xd
but since this is only about describing it, just say that each line goes through the two points and also the origin, you can look at my screenshot

Answer 29

oh okay let meh finish answering the first question

Answer 30

okay how do these answers look

Answer 31

1.For me the transformation was almost like flipping the traingle the opposite side, i put the coordinates (-4,5), (-2,1), and (-5,3) to make up the triangle, and in order to rotate it 180 degrees you have to switch the negatives with positives and positives with negatives making it (4,-5), (2,-1), and (5,-3).

2.Each line that i drew goes through the 2 points and also the origin, since when i drew it i can see how the lines pass by it.

Answer 32

yep, that's good

Answer 33

awesome! thank you soooo much! ill probably post like 3 more questions if that's okay?

Answer 34

altho the other half, the for point N, the answer is yes

Answer 35

uh, sure lol
