Question

figure b is the result of a transformation on figure a. which transformation would accomplish this? answer attempt 1 out of 2 a rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin a reflection over the x -axis a rotation 90° clockwise about the origin a reflection over the y -axis

Explanation:

Step1: Recall transformation rules

For a rotation of 90° counter - clockwise about the origin, the transformation rule for a point (x,y) is (-y,x). For a 90° clockwise rotation about the origin, the rule is (y, - x). For a reflection over the x - axis, the rule is (x,-y) and for a reflection over the y - axis, the rule is (-x,y).

Step2: Analyze the figure

Observing Figure A and Figure B, we can see that the x - coordinates of the corresponding points of the two figures have opposite signs while the y - coordinates remain the same.

Answer:

A reflection over the y - axis
