The odds is the ratio of the probability of an event occurring to that of its not occurring. P(boy) = 0.5. P(girl) = 0.5.
Therefore the odds of having a boy are 1:1.

∆ABC is reflected about the line y = -x to give ∆A'B'C' with vertices

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Since A‘(-1,1) is on the line y=-x, reflecting it about the line doesn't change its coordinate, so A's coordinate is (-1,1). Reflecting B'(-2,1) about y=-x switches both the sign and the number of x and y, so B=(-1,2), and C'(-1,0) becomes C(0,1). Drawing out the graph with the points and the line helps.
