Question 1 of 3

In a video‑game map, a shield is drawn on a coordinate grid with its four corners labeled A, B, C, and D at the points A(‑4, ‑2), B(‑1, 3), C(2, ‑1) and D(‑1, ‑4). If the entire shield is reflected across the x‑axis, which list correctly gives the coordinates of the reflected corners in the order A, B, C, D?

Question 2 of 3

A triangle has a vertex at (4, 3). If the triangle is translated 4 units left and 3 units up, what are the coordinates of that vertex after the translation? If the same original triangle is reflected across the x‑axis, what are the coordinates of that vertex after the reflection? Which pair of results correctly shows the effect of the translation and the reflection?

Question 3 of 3

A paper airplane is drawn on a coordinate grid with its corners at A (-2, 5), B (0, 1) and C (3, 4). If the whole airplane is slid 3 squares to the right and 2 squares down, which set of points shows the new coordinates of A, B and C?
