Question
which quadrant will △low be in when it is reflected across the y - axis and then reflected across the x - axis? (1 point) quadrant iv quadrant iii quadrant i quadrant ii
Step1: Recall y - axis reflection rule
When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected across the $y$-axis, the new point is $(-x,y)$. $\triangle LOW$ is in quadrant III initially. After reflection across the $y$-axis, the $x$-coordinates of its vertices change sign and it moves to quadrant IV.
Step2: Recall x - axis reflection rule
When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected across the $x$-axis, the new point is $(x, -y)$. After reflecting the triangle in quadrant IV across the $x$-axis, the $y$-coordinates of its vertices change sign and it moves to quadrant I.
