Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze the transformation process described in the image to find the coordinates of vertex :
Initial steps:
- Triangle is:
- Rotated 90° clockwise about the origin,
- Translated 5 units to the right,
- Reflected over the x-axis.
We will break down each transformation applied to vertex , following the given order.
Step 1: 90° clockwise rotation about the origin
When a point is rotated 90° clockwise around the origin, the coordinates transform as follows:
- The original coordinates of are (from observation of the graph).
- After 90° clockwise rotation:
Step 2: Translation 5 units to the right
To translate the point 5 units to the right, add 5 to the x-coordinate:
Step 3: Reflection over the x-axis
When reflecting a point over the x-axis, the y-coordinate changes its sign:
- After reflecting over the x-axis:
Thus, the final coordinates of vertex are .
Conclusion:
The answer isn't directly listed among the options provided in the multiple-choice answers. This may indicate a typo or a misalignment in the image text.
Would you like to clarify any details or ask further questions? Here are some additional questions for practice:
- What are the steps for performing a 180° rotation about the origin?
- How does reflecting over the y-axis affect the coordinates of a point?
- If a point is reflected over both the x-axis and y-axis, what transformation does it undergo?
- What is the effect of translating a point left and down by some units?
- How would the final image change if the reflection happened before the rotation?
Tip: Always double-check graph transformations by visualizing or plotting each step if possible.
