a. Which pair of cards shows a shape and its image after a rotation?
b. Which pair of cards shows a shape and its image after a reflection?

Answer 1

a). Cards (1) and (4)

b). Cards (3) and (5)

Explanation:

(a). From the cards attached,

If card (1) is rotated by an angle of 180° counterclockwise, we get the image given in card (4).

Therefore, card (4) will be the image of card (1) after a rotation.

(b). If we reflect card (3) across a horizontal line (or x- axis) image card (4) is obtained.

Therefore, card (3) and card (5) is the pair of cards.
