OR - 10 units to the right and 4 units up.

Answer 1

Answer:

Reflection across the line y=x followed by translation 10 units to the right and 4 units up.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC has vertices at points A(-6,2), B(-2,6) and C(-4,2).

1. The reflection across the line y=x has the rule

(x,y)→(y,x).

Thus,

• A(-6,2)→A''(2,-6);
• B(-2,6)→B''(6,-2);
• C(-4,2)→C''(2,-4).

2. The translation 10 units to the right and 4 units up has the rule

(x,y)→(x+10,y+4).

Thus,

• A''(2,-6)→A'(12,-2);
• B''(6,-2)→B'(16,2);
• C''(2,-4)→C'(12,0).

Points A'B'C' are exactly the vertices of the triangle A'B'C'.
