Answer:

A'(-2, -4)

B'(-7, -6)

C'(-1, -13)

Explanation:

The rule of reflection across y = -x is given by:


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

As per the statement:

The coordinates of the vertices of triangle ABC are given:

A(4, 2), B(6, 7) and C(13, 1)

Apply the rule of reflection y = -x to triangle ABC:


A(4, 2) \rightarrow A'(-2, -4)


B(6, 7) \rightarrow B'(-7, -6)


C(13, 1) \rightarrow C'(-1, -13)

Therefore, the vertices of triangle A'B'C are:

A'(-2, -4)

B'(-7, -6)

C'(-1, -13)
