Question

HELP!! Not hard, just confusing.. ΔABC is reflected across the x-axis and then translated 4 units up to create ΔA′B′C′. What are the coordinates of the vertices of ΔA′B′C′ ?

Answer 1

The coordinates of the vertices of ΔABC are:A( x1, y1), B( x2, y2) and C( x3, y 3 ). After it is reflected across the x-axis, coordinates are ( x1, -y1), (x2, -y2), (x3, -y3). Finally, the coordinates of the vertices of ΔA´B´C´ after translation are: A´( x1, 4-y1), B´( x2, 4- y2), C´( x3, 4-y3 )
