Quadrilateral ABCD is reflected across the x -axis. What are the coordinates of quadrilateral A'B'C'D'? A. A' (5, –5), B' (1, –5
), C' (1, –2), D' (5, –1) B. A' (–5, –5), B' (–1, –5), C' (–1, –2), D' (–5, –1) C. A' (5, 5), B' (1, 5), C' (1, 2), D' (5, 1) D. A' (5, 5), B' (5, 1), C' (2, 1), D' (1, 5)
This is important because if you were to answer in complex fractions instead of its simplest form, you would have a tough time multiplying complex fractions together. You would get a HUGE denominator or numerator, which makes things difficult. It is important to write a fraction in its simplest form because of exactly that; making things simple. Would you rather multiply 64/132*64/132 or 1/2*1/2?
