Answer:

M' (5,-1)

D' (5,1)

A' (3,4)

W' (4,-1)

Explanation:

We want to find the coordinates of Quadrilateral MDAW with vertices M(-1, 5), D(1,5), A(4,3), and W(-1,4) after a reflection across y = x.

We can find these coordinates by following the following rule:

Reflection over y = x rule : ( x , y ) ---> ( y , x )

Explanation of rule: Simply swap the places of the x and y values.

Applying rule to given coordinates:

M(-1,5) -----> swap x and y values -----> M'(5,-1)

D(1,5) ----> swap x and y values -----> D'(5,1)

A(4,3) -----> swap x and y values -----> A'(3,4)

W(-1,4) -----> swap x and y values -----> W'(4,-1)

So the coordinates of Quadrilateral MDAW after a reflection over the y = x line are M'(5,-1) , D'(5,1) , A'(3,4) , W'(4,-1)
