What single transformation maps ABC onto ABC A rotation 90 clockwise about the origin B rotation 90 counterclockwise about the origin C reflection across the xa class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the process by which the size or orientation of a given figure is altered without any effect on its shape. Examples are; rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Rotation is the process of turning a figure about a reference point called the origin. While reflection is turning a figure about a line to produce its image.

In the given question, ∆ABC is  mapped onto ∆A'B'C' by rotating it at 90° counterclockwise about the origin.

The correct option is (B). rotation 90°counterclockwise about the origin.

Given, ∆ABC and ∆A'B'C' are shown in attached figure.

We have to map ∆ABC onto ∆A'B'C',.

A transformation is a general term for four specific ways to manipulate the shape and or position of a point, a line, or geometric figure.

Transformation is  also the process by which the size or orientation of a given figure is altered without any effect on its shape.

A rotation is a transformation in which the object is rotated about a fixed point.The direction of rotation can be clockwise or anticlockwise.

It is clear from the fig that the ∆ABC can be mapped over ∆A'B'C' by the rotation of  90°counterclockwise about the origin.

Hence the correct option is (B). rotation 90°counterclockwise about the origin.
