Question

what sequence of transformations will map a triangle from (1,1), (3,1), and (2,4) to (-1,-1), (-3,-1), and (-2,-4)?

a. reflection over the y-axis

b. dilation by 0.5, reflection over the y-axis

c. rotation 180 degrees

d. translation 3 units right, reflection over y-axis

Étapes de solution

  1. Understand the question

    what sequence of transformations will map a triangle from (1,1), (3,1), and (2,4) to (-1,-1), (-3,-1), and (-2,-4)?

    a. reflection over the y-axis

    b. dilation by 0.5, reflection over the y-axis

    c. rotation 180 degrees

    d. translation 3 units right, reflection over y-axis

  2. Explanation

    Step1: Analyze coordinate transformation

    Compare original points $(x,y)$ to new points $(-x,-y)$:

    • $(1,1) \to (-1,-1)$, $(3,1) \to (-3,-1)$, $(2,4) \to (-2,-4)$

    Step2: Match to transformation rule

    A 180° rotation about the origin follows the rule $(x,y) \to (-x,-y)$, which matches the coordinate change.

    Step3: Eliminate other options

    • Reflection over y-axis: $(x,y) \to (-x,y)$ (does not match $-y$)
    • Dilation + y-axis reflection: Scales coordinates first, does not result in $(-x,-y)$
    • Translation + y-axis reflection: Shifts coordinates first, does not result in $(-x,-y)$
  3. Final answer

    c. Rotation 180 degrees
