Question

Graph the image of the given triangle after the transformation with the rule

(x, y) —> (-x,y)

Answer 1

The coordinates of image are : (-3,4) , (-8,2) and (-4,7)

Explanation:

The rule is given as (x, y) —> (-x,y)

The coordinates of the triangle are : (3,4) , (8,2) and (4,7)

The coordinates of the image of the triangle will be : (-3,4) , (-8,2) and (-4,7)

Graphing the coordinates of image and connect the points to get the image of the triangle as attached below;

You will notice the rule of the transformation is a reflection along the y-axis.
