Question

The rose garden’s boundary can easily be turned over to create a mirror image of the garden’s shape. If Vincent reflects the original rose garden across the x-axis, what will the coordinates of the rose garden’s vertices be after the reflection? Use the terms A', B', C', and D'.

Answer 1

The coordinates of the original rose garden’s vertices are A(3, 6), B(3, 3), C(4, 3), and D(4, 6).

Because the rose garden reflects across the x-axis, the x-coordinates of the vertices will remain the same. However, the signs of the vertices’ y-coordinates will change. The coordinates of the reflected figure will be A'(3, -6), B'(3, -3), C'(4, -3), and D'(4, -6).

Answer 2

Answer: A'(3,-6), B'(3,-3), C'(4,-3), and D'(4,-6)
