Question

Which sequence of transformations will result in a parallelogram with vertices A(−2, 1), B(−4,−3), C(2,−5), D(4,−1) being carried onto the parallelogram A'B'C'D' shown below?

Answer 1

A translation 1 unit right and 2 units up followed by a reflection across the x-axis.

Explanation:

Because you slid the shape over.

Hope this helps! Stay safe! :))))

Answer 2

translated 1 unit right and 2 units up followed by a reflection across x axis

Explanation:

Parallelogram has vertices A(−2, 1), B(−4,−3), C(2,−5), D(4,−1) while parallelogram A'B'C'D' has vertices A'(-1, -3) B'(-3, 1) C'(3, 3) D'(5, -1)

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to new location. If an object is transformed then all its points are transformed. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, dilation and translation.

If a point X(x, y) is translated a units right and b unit up , the new point is X'(x + a, y + b).

If a point X(x, y) is reflected across the x axis, the new point is X'(x, -y)

If parallelogram ABCD is translated 1 unit right and 2 units up (i.e. x + 1, y + 2), the new points is A*(-1, 3), B*(-3, -1), C*(3, -3), D*(5, -1). If a reflection across x axis is then done, the new point is A'(-1, -3) B'(-3, 1) C'(3, 3) D'(5, -1)
