For this case we have the following transformation rule:
(x, y) --------> (x, - y - 2) ----------> (x ', y')
We are going to apply the following transformation rule for vertex D, for example.
We have then:
(4, 1) --------> (4, - 1 - 2) ----------> (4, -3)
Therefore, the transformation is:
Reflection on the x axis and vertical displacement 2 units down.
