Question

How could I transform the original figure T to figure S?

Answer 1

Given the figures S and T

We will find the transformation which makes S is the image of T

So, we will compare two corresponding pairs of points

we will compare the points (1,2) from T with (2, -7) from S

As we can see the x-coordinates of the first point is equal to the y-coordinates of the second point

This happens to incase of rotation 90 clockwise

So, the first transformation is Rotation 90 clockwise

so, the result of the point will give (2, -1)

Then the point (2, -1) becomes (2, -7)

This means translation 6 units down

So, the answer will be:

Rotation 90 clockwise, then translation 6 units down
