To reflect triangle ABC with vertices A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), and C(x3, y3) across the x-axis and the y-axis, we apply the following transformations to each vertex:

  1. Reflection across the x-axis: The y-coordinate changes sign. Therefore:

    • A(x1, y1) becomes A(x1, -y1)
    • B(x2, y2) becomes B(x2, -y2)
    • C(x3, y3) becomes C(x3, -y3)
  2. Reflection across the y-axis: The x-coordinate changes sign. Therefore:

    • A(x1, -y1) becomes A(-x1, -y1)
    • B(x2, -y2) becomes B(-x2, -y2)
    • C(x3, -y3) becomes C(-x3, -y3)

From this, the final reflected coordinates for the vertices A', B', and C' are:

  • A'(-x1, -y1)
  • B'(-x2, -y2)
  • C'(-x3, -y3)

Given the responses listed in your question, we need to find which of these is the correct reflection of triangle ABC.

Without the original coordinates of the triangle ABC provided, we cannot give specific answers. However, we can analyze the options:

  1. A′(−2,1) , B′(−6,3) , C′(−1,3)
  2. A′(2,1) , B′(6,3) , C′(1,3)
  3. A′(−2,−1) , B′(−6,−3) , C′(−1,−3)
  4. A′(−2,1) , B′(−1,3) , C′(−6,3)

To find the correct answer, we would need to check if the transformation has been applied correctly to the coordinates of triangle ABC. Can you provide the original coordinates of triangle ABC?

A is (2, -1), B is (6, -3) and C is (1, -3)
