Here is my process for solving this.

First I drew arrows that indicated I was moving the whole triangle 5 units to the left.

*Look at first attachment*

Then I drew another triangle using those new points. (The new triangle is in pink)

*Look at second attachment*

Then I drew arrows that moved this new triangle 4 units up. (The new arrows are in pink)

*Look at third attachment*

Then I drew the new triangle in blue using the new points.

*Look at fourth attachment*

Then I mirrored / reflected the triangle over the x axis (the horizontal line) In green.

*Look at fifth attachment*

The fifth attachment in green is the final product! Hope that helps.
