Answer:

Not a right triangle. See below for my reasoning.

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is a right triangle, then the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides will equal the square of the longest side: 7^2 + 9^2 = 11^2 => 49 + 81 = 121 But this is false.

What set of reflections and rotations would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself? Parallelogram formed by ordered pairs A at negativ

pickupchik [31]

Each of the 4 choices has been drawn step by step as follows:

the first transformation is drawn in light grey
the second transformation is drawn in dark grey
the third transformation is described as how it should be.

Choice I, picture I:
Rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis, reflect over the line y=x

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the y-axis

Choice II, picture II:
Reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°, reflect over the x-axis

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the y-axis

Choice III, picture III:
Rotate 180°, reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the line y=x

the last transformation should be : reflect with respect to the x-axis

Choice IV, picture IV:
Reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°

the last transformation should be : rotate 180° CORRECT!

Answer: Reflect over the y-axis, reflect over the x-axis, rotate 180°
