We square the residuals when using the least-squares line method to find the line of best fit because we believe that huge negative residuals (i.e., points well below the line) are just as harmful as large positive residuals (i.e., points that are high above the line).
<h3>What do you mean by Residuals?</h3>
We treat both positive and negative disparities equally by squaring the residual values. We cannot discover a single straight line that concurrently minimizes all residuals. The average (squared) residual value is instead minimized.
We might also take the absolute values of the residuals rather than squaring them. Positive disparities are viewed as just as harmful as negative ones under both strategies.

Which transformations can be used to map a triangle with vertices A(2, 2), B(4, 1), C(4, 5) to A’(–2, –2), B’(–1, –4), C’(–5, –4

Notice that every pair of point (x, y) in the original picture, has become (-y, -x) in the transformed figure.
Let ABC be first transformed onto A"B"C" by a 90° clockwise rotation.
Notice that B(4, 1) is mapped onto B''(1, -4). So the rule mapping ABC to A"B"C" is (x, y)→(y, -x)
so we are very close to (-y, -x).
The transformation that maps (y, -x) to (-y, -x) is a reflection with respect to the y-axis. Notice that the 2. coordinate is same, but the first coordinates are opposite.
ANSWER:
"<span>a 90 clockwise rotation about the origin and a reflection over the y-axis</span>"
