Transformations of Triangle ABC

The video tutorial explains how to map triangle ABC onto triangle A'B'C' using a sequence of transformations. It begins with a reflection over the x-axis, followed by a translation to the right. The tutorial details the steps involved in reflecting the triangle and calculating the new position, emphasizing the importance of understanding the units of movement. Finally, it covers the translation process, ensuring the triangle is correctly positioned without vertical movement.

What is the initial transformation applied to triangle ABC to map it onto triangle A'B'C'?

• Scaling by a factor of 2

• Translation along the y-axis

• Reflection over the x-axis

• Rotation around the origin

What is the purpose of drawing lines during the reflection process?

• To determine the angle of rotation

• To calculate the area of the triangle

• To visualize the units between the triangle and the axis

• To measure the distance between points

What happens to the triangle after it is flipped over the x-axis?

• It moves to a new quadrant

• It remains in the same position

• It flips straight over the x-axis

• It rotates 180 degrees

After reflecting triangle ABC over the x-axis, what is the next step in the transformation process?

• Translate the triangle 10 units to the right

• Scale the triangle by a factor of 0.5

• Reflect the triangle over the y-axis

• Rotate the triangle 90 degrees

How many units does the triangle move horizontally after the reflection?

• 10 units

• 15 units

• 5 units

• 20 units

What is the vertical movement required after the reflection over the x-axis?

• Move 10 units up

• Move 5 units down

• No vertical movement

• Move 5 units up

What is the final position of the triangle after all transformations?

• Same as the original position

• 10 units right of the original position

• 10 units left of the original position

• 20 units above the original position
