Answer:

see below

Explanation:

Reflection across the x-axis just changes the signs of the y-coordinates. Rotation -120° about B' is difficult to do by hand. The transformation rule for that is ...

(x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(-120°) +y·sin(-120°), -x·sin(-120°) +y·cos(-120°))

(x, y) ⇒ ((-(x-3) +(y+2)√3)/2 +3, (-(x-3)√3 -(y+2))/2 -2)

It looks like your problem is presented in GeoGebra, which makes reflection and rotation easy.
