Answer:

  • See below

Explanation:

Since the x-axis is the line of symmetry, the missing vertex is the reflection of the given vertex over the line of symmetry.

  • The given vertex is (- 2, 4)
  • Its reflection is (- 2, -4), only y-coordinate changes to opposite

Connect these points with the vertex on the x-axis to complete the triangle.
