Answer:

A'(-1,-4)

B'(-5,-8)

C'(-5,-4)

D'(-4,-2)

Explanation:

We have been given a graph of a quadrilateral and we are asked to find the coordinates of our quadrilateral after reflecting it across the x-axis.

We can see that coordinates of quadrilateral ABCD are:

A (-1,4),

B (-5,8),

C (-5,4),

D (-4,2).

Since we know that rule for reflecting an image across x-axis is
(a,b)\rightarrow (a,-b). This means that y-coordinates of our given image will be negative.

So after reflecting our given quadrilateral across x-axis, coordinates will be:


A(-1,4)\rightarrow A'(-1,-4)


B(-5,8)\rightarrow B'(-5,-8)


C(-5,4)\rightarrow C'(-5,-4)


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