Question
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a coordinate plane. The x-axis and the y-axis range from negative 6 to 6 in one unit increments. Six points are plotted on the plane. Two right triangles are graphed on the plane. Three points are plotted in the first quadrant. Point A is plotted at the coordinates left parenthesis 3 comma 2 right parenthesis, Point B is plotted at left parenthesis 3 comma 6 right parenthesis, and point C is plotted at left parenthesis 6 comma 2 right parenthesis. Points A and B, points B and C, and points C and A are connected by a dotted line segment to form triangle A B C. Three points are plotted in the second quadrant. Point D is plotted at the coordinates left parenthesis negative 3 comma 2 right parenthesis, Point E is plotted at left parenthesis negative 3 comma 6 right parenthesis, and point F is plotted at left parenthesis negative 6 comma 2 right parenthesis. Points D and E, points E and F, and points F and D are connected by line segments to form triangle D E F.
Triangle ABC is reflected across the y-axis to produce triangle DEF. Which segment on DEF is congruent to the segment BC?
