If you reflect a triangle of ABC, A = (-6,-2) , B = (-4,-5) , C (-1,-5) across the X axis, what would you translate it?

If you reflect triangle ABC across the X-axis, the new coordinates of the reflected triangle would be:

A' = (-6, 2)
B' = (-4, 5)
C' = (-1, 5)

Therefore, the translation would be 4 units up in the positive Y direction.
It’s a coordinate
My apologies for the misunderstanding. If you reflect triangle ABC across the X-axis, the new coordinates of the reflected triangle would be:

A' = (-6, 2)
B' = (-4, 5)
C' = (-1, 5)

To express this translation as a coordinate, you denote the movement in the Y-direction, which in this case is 7 units up, as (0, 7).
