Mrs. Hamilton shows her students this graph and asks them to determine how figure A was transformed to figure B.
On a coordinate plane, triangle A has points (negative 1, 0), (negative 2, 4), (negative 1, 4). Triangle B has points (3, 1), (3, 5), (4, 5)..
Marcus suggests that figure A was reflected over the y-axis and then translated 2 to the right and 1 up. Julianne agrees, and states that the transformations could happen in any order. Which best describes the accuracy of Julianne’s statement?
Accurate. A translation of figure A of 2 to the right and 1 up and then a reflection over the y-axis produces the image, figure B.
Accurate. A reflection over the y-axis and then a translation of 1 up and 2 to the right produces the image, figure B.
Inaccurate. A translation of 2 to the right and 1 up and then a reflection over the y-axis results in a figure that is located in the second quadrant.
