Answer:

(B) Reflection in the x-axis

Explanation:

We can see that these triangles have the exact same x-coordinates, however their y coordinates are opposite each other. This means that if we wanted to get one of the triangles to the other, we’d have to reflect over the x-axis

(by default, if the x values are the same and y are opposite, reflect across x axis. If y values are the same and x is opposite, reflect over y. it’s sort of like opposites.)

Hope this helped!
