How to Graph Transformation on the Coordinate Plane: Reflection?

Transformation: Reflection – Example 2:

Solution:

Find the original coordinates:

\(A=(-3, 4)\) \(B=(-4, 2)\) \(C=(-2, -1)\) \(D=(-1, 3)\)

The reflection of the point \((x, y)\) across the \(y\)-axis is the point \((-x, y)\), So:

\(A^\prime=(3, 4)\) \(B^\prime=(4, 2)\) \(C^\prime=(2, -1)\) \(D^\prime=(1, 3)\)

The image of Polygon \(ABCِِD\) is \(A^\prime B^\prime C^\prime D^\prime\).

Exercises for Transformation: Reflection
