Given: Graph with two figure.
To find:
How can you map Figure A onto Figure B
To map Figure A onto Figure B, we have to do two transformations:
reflection across the y-axis
reflection across the x-axis
Notice that figures have the same shape and size, but orientation has changed. These are properties of the reflected figures.
Therefore, we can anticipate that there transformation will be reflection.
It is also important to say that is no matter what reflection was before.
Because the resulting picture, after the sequence of transformation, must be the same regardless of the order of transformation.
We can map Figure A onto Figure B using:
reflection across the y−axis.
Reflection across the x−axis.
Page 315 Focus On Math Practices Answer
Given:
Graph for figure A and figure B
To find:
Is there another transformation or sequence of transformations that will map Figure A to figure B?
We can compose transformations by applying a sequence of two or more transformations.
And, if we look at the picture, we can see that we have to do more than one transformation to map Figure A to figure B.
To be precise, we have to:
– reflect the Figure A across the y-axis
– reflect the reflected figure across x-axis
It is important to emphasize that is no matter what transformation was before.
Because the resulting picture, after the sequence of transformation, must be the same
Yes, there is another transformation or sequence of transformations that will map Figure A to Figure B but the resulting picture, after the sequence of transformation, will be the same regardless of the order of transformations.

Ava has decided to place the chairs directly across the couch.
She needs to do it by transformation.
We can see that Ava can compose these chairs across the couch by the method of transformation which is called linear transformation.
Finally, Ava can put the chairs across the couch by transformation.
Eva will use linear sequence for the transformation of chairs.
Page 317 Try It Answer
We had given two triangles ABC and A′′B′′C′′.
We need to find the transformation between them.
When two or more transformations are combined to form a new transformation, the result is called a sequence (or a composition) of transformations.
In a sequence of transformations, the first transformation produces an image upon which the second transformation is then performed.
The composition of transformation gives the mapping for the given triangle.
Page 318 Exercise 2 Answer
A preimage is rotated twice to its final position and opposite sign.
To compare the image and pre-image
If you follow is the rule :P(x, y) > 180° rotation
> P′(−x,−y). the negative signs don’t mean to make it negative but to change it to the opposite sign. If it’s positive it goes to negative. And if it’s negative is goes to positive. The rotated image would have the points: (1,2),(4,4),(3,7).
The signs don’t affect the position of the image.

Page 318 Exercise 6 Answer
Given:
To find:
reflection of rectangle WXYZ
In order to find the reflection of the above we have to refer to the tip mentioned.
Draw a line y = 1
Since the point Z is one point above the line y = 1 the reflected point Z′ will be one point below the line y = 1
Using the same method, reflect points Y,X and W across the line y = 1 labeling them Y′X′ and W′
Translate each of the points Z′Y′X′ and W′ one unit right.
Label the translated points with Z′′,Y′′,X′′ and W′′
Connect the points to form a quadrilateral Z′′,Y′′,X′′ and W′′

In order to find the location we have to follow the tip and plot the graph accordingly.
Draw the given rectangle on the graph.
Move all the points 3 units to the left and rename the rectangle as E′F′G′H′
Move all the points 3 units down.
The location of the quadrilateral E′F′G′H′ after two movement is shown
Rotate all the points 90∘ about the origin
Therefore, the new location of E′F′G′H′ is shown
The new location of E′F′G′H′ is shown after 3 units left, 3 units right and 90∘ rotation about the origin.
Page 319 Exercise 9 Answer
Given :
To describe a sequence of transformations that maps quadrilateral ABCD to quadrilateral HIJK.
First reflect the vertices of quadrilateral ABCD
then translate the vertices.
Reflect the vertices of quadrilateral ABCD along the x-axis
Then translate the vertices 6 units left and 1 unit upward to from quadrilateral HIJK
Thus, Reflection along the x-axis followed by the translation of 6 units left and 1 unit up maps the quadrilateral ABCD into the quadrilateral HIJK
Page 319 Exercise 10 Answer
Given:
To map △QRS to △Q′R′S′ with a reflection across the y-axis followed by a translation 6 units down.
Translate each of the points 6 units down then label the translated points.
The reflection line is x = 0.
Since the point R is two point left of the line x = 0, the reflected point R′ will be two point right of the line x = 0.
Using the same method, reflect points Q and S across the line x = 0 labeling them Q′,S′.
Translate each of the points Q′,R′,S′ six unit down.
Label the translated points with Q′,R′,S′ and connect them to form a triangle ΔQ′R′S′
Thus, the required image after a reflection across the line x = 0 and a translation 6 unit down is given.
Page 319 Exercise 11 Answer
Given : A student says that he was rearranging furniture at home and he used a glide reflection to move a table with legs from one side of the room to the other.
To explain a glide reflection result in a functioning table
First draw the table image and point A.
Let the table be as shown and the point A represent the chair.
In glide reflection, the table is first translated as shown.
Then, the table is reflected along the line shown.
The resulting table after glide reflection is shown. it can be seen that it is a functioning table as the chair A is positioned correctly.
Thus, the resulting table after glide reflection is shown. it can be seen that it is a functioning table as the chair A is positioned correctly.
