Trapezoid ABCD is shown on the coordinate plane.Trapezoid formed by ordered pairs A at negative 4 comma 1, B at negative 3 comma 2, C at negative 1 comma 2, D at 0 comma 1.If trapezoid ABCD is reflected over the x-axis and then reflected over the y-axis, which final step would carry the trapezoid onto itself?Group of answer choicesRotate 180°Rotate 90° clockwiseReflect over the x-axisReflect over the y-axis

Sagot :

Given: The coordinates of a trapezoid as below

[tex]\begin{gathered} A(-4,1) \\ B(-3,2) \\ C(-1,2) \\ D(0,1) \end{gathered}[/tex]

To Determine: The final step on the trapezoid after it is reflected over the x-axis and then reflected over the axis

Solution

Please note that a reflection over the x-axis and reflection over the y-axis is different from the last step, which is a reflection over the y-axis

The reflection over the y-axis could either be a rotation of 90^0 clockwise or anticlockwise.

So get the trapezid onto itself after a reflection over the y-axis from a reflection over teh x-axis requires two steps

We have step 1: Reflection over the x-axis, then

Step 2: Reflection over the y-axis

Hence, the final step is reflection over the y-axis
