Describing Transformations
Problem 1
Here is Trapezoid A in the coordinate plane:
![Trapezoid \(A\) on a coordinate plane, origin \(O\) . Horizontal and vertical axis scale negative 5 to 5 by 1’s. Trapezoid \(A\) has coordinates (2 comma 1), (2 comma 3), (4 comma 4) and (4 comma 1).](https://cms-im.s3.amazonaws.com/67eBQbYcNguVLYyPcdooQHdg?response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3D%228-8.1.A6.newPP.01.png%22%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%278-8.1.A6.newPP.01.png&response-content-type=image%2Fpng&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAXQCCIHWF3XOEFOW4%2F20240630%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20240630T171533Z&X-Amz-Expires=604800&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=dd88fc4b150343c8b9d5e2a9a2cd5861b0b3829da3f76c7596e7048bb7f3b77e)
- Draw Polygon B, the image of A, using the \(y\)-axis as the line of reflection.
- Draw Polygon C, the image of B, using the \(x\)-axis as the line of reflection.
- Draw Polygon D, the image of C, using the \(x\)-axis as the line of reflection.

Problem 4
Here is quadrilateral \(ABCD\).
![Quadrilateral A B C D. A B, A D and D C all have negative slopes. B C has a positive slope. A B C D has no parallel sides and no right angles.](https://cms-im.s3.amazonaws.com/awLCEPgA3sFPyMqxd2UeEmxz?response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3D%228-8.1.A2.newPP.02.png%22%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%278-8.1.A2.newPP.02.png&response-content-type=image%2Fpng&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAXQCCIHWF3XOEFOW4%2F20240630%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20240630T171533Z&X-Amz-Expires=604800&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=6afd9b9d6798c034f62d78062dfdb821815011c3a25f2dba86bdac372313c400)
Draw the image of quadrilateral \(ABCD\) after each transformation.
- The translation that takes \(B\) to \(D\).
- The reflection over segment \(BC\).
- The rotation about point \(A\) by angle \(DAB\), counterclockwise.
