Question

Consider the angle. Which TWO statements are true?

Answer 1

Answer:

C, E

Step-by-step explanation:

A. INCORRECT

A is wrong because a reflection across the x-axis DOES move the position of the figure (as it is flipped, so the position changes), but it DOES NOT change the angle (since a shift in position doesn't equal to a change in angle measure)

B. INCORRECT

Although a reflection across the x-axis does change the position of the angle, it DOES NOT change the measure of the angle.

C. CORRECT

A reflection across the x-axis does in fact move the position of the figure and does not change the angle measure. Reflections only deal with flipping a figure, not changing it's shape/distorting it so that the angle will change.

D. INCORRECT

A translation right will change the position of the figure but will not change the measure of the angle.

E. CORRECT

Yes, a translation right WILL change the position of the figure but will NOT change the measure of the angle. This is because a translation is simply moving a figure up and down; it has nothing to do with changing the shape of the figure/distorting it so that the angle is different.
