The rule of a reflection across the y-axis is


(x,y)\rightarrow(-x,y)

So, let's transform each vertex.


\begin{gathered} A(4,4)\rightarrow A^(\prime)(-4,4) \\ B(3,-1)\rightarrow B^(\prime)(-3,-1) \\ C(1,-2)\rightarrow B^(\prime)(-1,-2) \end{gathered}

Now, we graph the reflection, the image below shows it
