Question

What happens when you reflect a shape over the x-axis and then the y-axis. What is the one transformation that could have been performed to achieve the same result?

Answer 1

Rotate 180 degrees with the center the origin (0,0)

Explanation:

Try drawing a small square in the first quadrant, then reflect it like the direction. If you use tracing paper and and copy the figure, you will see that if you rotate the figure at the origin, it will land on the same spot as the translations.
