Question

Use a graph paper to answer the following questions. (Take 1 cm = 1 unit on both axis): 

(i) Plot A (4, 4), B (4, – 6) and C (8, 0), the vertices of a triangle ABC.

(ii) Reflect ABC on the y-axis and name it as A’B’C’.

(iii) Write the coordinates of the images A’, B’ and C’.

(iv) Give a geometrical name for the figure AA’ C’B’ BC.

(v) Identify the line of symmetry of AA’ C’ B’ BC.

Answer 1

(i)  and (ii) see the given graph.

(iii)  A' (-4, 4), B' (-4, – 6) ,C' (8, 0)

(iv)  AA’ C’B’ BC is a Hexagon.

(v) y-axis is the line of symmetry.
