Graph a triangle (LMN) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle L'M'N'. Describe the transformation using words. Draw a line segment from point L to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point L' to the reflecting line. What do you notice about the two line segments you drew? Do you think you would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting M with the reflecting line and then M' with the reflecting line? How do you know? (10 points)

Graph a triangle (LMN) and rotate it 180° around the origin to create triangle L′M′N′. Describe the transformation using words. Make sure you refer to the characteristics and the coordinates. Draw a line through points L and L′ and through M and M′. What do you notice about the lines you drew? Do you think you would notice the same characteristics if you drew another line through points N and N′? How do you know?

Describe the transformation using words. Make sure you refer to the characteristics and the coordinates. Draw a line segment from point S to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point S' to the reflecting line. What do you notice about the two line segments you drew? Do you think you would notice the same characteristics if you drew the line segment connecting T with the reflecting line and then T' with the reflecting line? How do you know?

9. Triangle LMN with vertices L(-7, 4), M(-3, 0), and N(-8, 1): (a) Translation: (x, y) → (x + 5, y - 6) (b) Reflection: in the line y = -x 10. Rectangle ABCD with vertices A(1, 0), B(7, 2), C(8, -1), and D(2, -3): (a) Translation: (x, y) → (x - 8, y - 3) (b) Reflection: in the x-axis
