Question
- which describes the transformation shown below? a. reflection over the y - axis b. rotation 270° clockwise c. rotation 90 ° clockwise d. translation left
Step1: Recall transformation definitions
Reflection over y - axis changes sign of x - coordinates. Rotation changes orientation. Translation moves shape without rotation or reflection.
Step2: Analyze the transformation
The shape A is flipped across the y - axis to get A'. In a reflection over the y - axis, if a point (x,y) in shape A has coordinates, its image (x',y') in A' has x'=-x and y' = y. This matches the transformation shown.
