Given triangle ABC with coordinates A(−2, 7), B(−2, 4), and C(−4, 3), and its image A′B′C′ with A′(2, 3), B′(−1, 3), and C′(−2, 1), find the line of reflection. The line of reflection is at y =

y = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

given an obtuse scalene triangle (∆ABC) with vertices A(-2,7), B(-2,4), and C(-4,3) (representing the preimage of the reflection). And congruent triangle (∆A'B'C') with vertices A'(2,3), B'(-1,3), and C'(-2,1) (representing the image of the reflection / triangle after the reflection).

The easiest way to look at this is by taking the inverse of each point on the preimage (swapping y and x coordinates) and the adding 5 to the y and subtracting 5 from the x to get the image.

You can test this, and you will see that this will match with vertices of the image.

step-by-step explanation:

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16
