Question

parallel lines a and b are translated one unit up and reflected over the y - axis. which statement is true of the lines? after the transformations the lines will be parallel. because of the transformations the lines will intersect. after the transformations the lines will be perpendicular. because of the transformations the lines will become the same line.

Explanation:

Translation and reflection are rigid - motions. Rigid - motions preserve parallelism. If two lines are parallel initially, after a translation (shifting one unit up) and a reflection (over the y - axis), the relative orientation of the two lines does not change.

Answer:

After the transformations the lines will be parallel.
