Question
Line segment XY has endpoints at (1, -3) and (5, -4). The segment reflects over the x-axis. Then, it undergoes a
translation 3 units to the right. What are the new coordinates for the endpoints? Does the transformation affect the
length of the line?
A)
(4, 3) and (8, 4); No, the length of the line segment is not affected.
(-4, 3) and (8, 4); Yes, the transformation increases the length of the line
B)
segment.
(3,4) and (8,-1); No, the length of the line segment is not affected.
(4, 1) and (7,-6); Yes, the transformation shortens the length of the line
segment.
