Question

1. refer to the figures shown. identify the transformation that has occurred from figure a to figure b. a. translation 4 units to the left b. translation 8 units to the right c. reflection across a vertical line d. reflection across a horizontal line

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each transformation:

• Option A: Translation 4 units left moves a figure left, not matching a reflection.
• Option B: Translation 8 units right moves a figure right, not a reflection.
• Option C: Reflection across a vertical line flips a figure over a vertical axis (like a mirror on a vertical line), which is a common reflection transformation.
• Option D: Reflection across a horizontal line flips over a horizontal axis, which is less likely here (vertical reflection is more typical for figure transformations between A and B, assuming standard orientation).

Answer:

C. Reflection across a vertical line
