Question

figure o is the result of a transformation on figure n. which transformation would accomplish this?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the positions of Figure N and Figure O.

Figure N is on the right side of the y - axis, and Figure O is on the left side of the y - axis. The shape and size of the two figures seem to be the same.

Step2: Recall the types of transformations.

A reflection over the y - axis transforms a point \((x,y)\) to \((-x,y)\). By observing the coordinates of corresponding vertices of Figure N and Figure O, we can see that if we reflect Figure N over the y - axis, we will get Figure O. Rotation would change the orientation in a different way, and translation would move the figure without flipping it over an axis. So the transformation is a reflection over the y - axis.

Answer:

Reflection over the y - axis
