Answer:
We need the following three rigid motions:
i) Reflection around y-axis, ii) Translation three units in the -y direction, iii) Translation four units in the -x direction.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to perform three operations on pentagon ABCDE to create pentagon A'B'C'D'E':
i) Reflection around y-axis:
[tex](x',y') = (-x,y)[/tex] (Eq. 1)
ii) Translation three units in the -y direction:
[tex](x'',y'') = (x', y'-3)[/tex] (Eq. 2)
iii) Translation four units in the -x direction:
[tex](x''',y''') = (x''-4, y'')[/tex] (Eq. 3)
We proceed to proof the effectiveness of operations defined above by testing point D:
1) [tex]D(x,y) = (-1, 4)[/tex] Given.
2) [tex](x',y') = (1,4)[/tex] By (Eq. 1)
3) [tex](x'',y'') = (1, 1)[/tex] By (Eq. 2)
4) [tex]D'(x,y) = (-3,1)[/tex] By (Eq. 3)/Result
