-If you did not complete our translation/reflection mini-assignment please do so for homework:

  2. Reflect your pre-image across/over the y-axis carefully and label the image you have created properly with prime symbols. (Level 2)
  3. Next, reflect your image(A’B’C’D’E’) across/over the x-axis carefully and label the image you have created properly (A’’B’’C’’D’’E’’) with double prime symbols.(Level 3)
  4. Describe two different tranformations that would return your second image (A’’B’’C’’D’’E’’) back to its initial/starting position in quadrant two. (Level 4)
