A reflection acrros x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

when reflecting across an axis, the distance of the new image to the axis must be the same, so

transformation 1:

reflection across the x-axis

Step 2

refleciton acrros the y-axis

we can see that after 2 reflections we have the triangle 2, so

the answer is

A reflection acrros x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis

I hope this helps you
