Rectangle ABCD has vertices A(-4,2), B(-4,1), C(-1,1) and D(-1,2).
1. Apply the reflection over the x-axis that has a rule
(x,y)→(x,-y).
Then
- A(-4,2)→A''(-4,-2);
- B(-4,1)→B''(-4,-1);
- C(-1,1)→C''(-1,-1);
- D(-1,2)→D''(-1,-2).
2. The second transformation is rotation by 90° counterclockwise about the origin. This transformation has a rule
(x,y)→(-y,x).
Then
- A''(-4,-2)→A'(2,-4);
- B''(-4,-1)→B'(1,-4);
- C''(-1,-1)→C'(1,-1);
- D''(-1,-2)→D'(2,-1).
As you can see these points are exactly those frome the diagram.
Answer: 1st transformation is reflection over the x-axis and second transformation is rotation by 90° counterclockwise about the origin.
