Q:

to describe a sequence of transformations that maps triangle ABC onto triangle a"b"c", a student starts with a reflection over the x-axis.how should the student complete the sequence of transformations to map triangle ABC onto triangle a"b"c"?plz help ​

A:
i dont quite get the question but...i guess this is how it is.Take the mirror image of∆ABC Through the a line through the point y=3.The new ∆ABC would have point C=(4,2)B=(3,-6) A=(1,-3)Now shifting the ∆ABC one unit (i.e. 2 acc. to the graph as scale is 1 unit =2) towards right ( or adding 2 to the x coordinates of ∆ABC)We get the Coordinates of triangle ABC as A=(3,-3) B=(5,-6) C=(6,2).This coordinate is the same coordinates of ∆A"B"C".Hope it helps...Regards;Leukonov/Olegion.
