Step-by-step explanation:

Draw lines from one vertex to the other vertices, splitting the polygon into triangles. If the polygon has n sides, there will be n−2 triangles. Each triangle's angles add up to 180°. So the sum of all the interior angles is:

S = (n−2) 180°

Graph the image of the given triangle after the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y) .

Zarrin [17]

Firstly, we will select three corner points

A=(2,3)

B=(6,8)

C=(7,4)

we are given

the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y)

y--->-y

so, it is reflected about x-axis

so, we will multiply y-value by -1

we get new points as

A=(2,-3)

B=(6,-8)

C=(7,-4)

now, we can locate these points and draw graph

we get
