I can analyze the image you uploaded and help you solve the problem. Let me first describe and solve it based on the visible content.
Problem Recap:
The graph displays a rhombus .
- is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin to produce .
- Then is reflected across the y-axis to produce .
Your task is to verify which statements about the transformations are true.
Steps:
1. Understanding 90° clockwise rotation:
- For a point :
- After a 90° clockwise rotation about the origin, the coordinates become .
2. Reflecting across the y-axis:
- For a point :
- After reflecting across the y-axis, the coordinates become .
3. Verifying statements:
Now, I'll analyze the true/false nature of each statement. I'll compute some coordinates after each transformation:
-
Vertices of :
-
Vertices of after 90° clockwise rotation:
-
Vertices of after reflection across the y-axis:
Analyzing the Statements:
-
The x- and y-coordinates of have different signs:
- : Both coordinates are negative.
- This is FALSE.
-
The y-coordinate of and the x-coordinate of are the same:
- : The y-coordinate is .
- : The x-coordinate is .
- This is TRUE.
-
The x- and y-coordinates of are the same:
- : The x-coordinate is , and the y-coordinate is .
- This is FALSE.
-
The x-coordinate of is positive:
- : The x-coordinate is , which is not positive.
- This is FALSE.
Final Answer:
- The only correct statement is:
- The y-coordinate of and the x-coordinate of are the same.
