Question

On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (negative 3, negative 1), (negative 2, negative 3), (1, negative 1) and is reflected across y = 1. Reflect the figure over the line y = 1. Which is point A’ after the reflection? A’(–3, 1) A’(–3, 3) A’(–3, 2) A’(1, 1)

Answer 1

Answer:

A' = (-3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the points are as follows:

A = (-3, -1)

B = (-2, -3)

C = (1, -1)

When reflecting across a y axis the x values remain the same.

When reflecting across y = 1 the y values will remain equal distant from y = 1.

A' = (-3, 3) y value = |-1 - 1| = 2 + 1 = 3

B' = (-2, 5) y value = |-3 - 1| = 4 + 1 = 5

C' = (1, 3) y value = |-1 - 1| = 2 + 1 = 3
