Given:
The vertices of the triangle ABC are A(2,3), B(-4,4), C(-1,-3).
Translation: [tex](x,y)\to (x+2,y)[/tex]
Reflection: in the x-axis.
To find:
The graph of the image.
Solution:
The vertices of the triangle ABC are A(2,3), B(-4,4), C(-1,-3).
The rule of translation is:
[tex](x,y)\to (x+2,y)[/tex]
The points after translations are:
[tex]A(2,3)\to A'(2+2,3)[/tex]
[tex]A(2,3)\to A'(4,3)[/tex]
[tex]B(-4,4)\to B'(-4+2,4)[/tex]
[tex]B(-4,4)\to B'(-2,4)[/tex]
[tex]C(-1,-3)\to C'(-1+2,-3)[/tex]
[tex]C(-1,-3)\to C'(1,-3)[/tex]
After that the figure is reflected across the x-axis. So, the rule of reflection is:
[tex](x,y)\to (x,-y)[/tex]
[tex]A'(4,3)\to A''(4,-3)[/tex]
[tex]B'(-2,4)\to B''(-2,-4)[/tex]
[tex]C'(1,-3)\to C''(1,3)[/tex]
The vertices of image are A''(4,-3), B''(-2,-4), C''(1,3).
