Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. The transformation rule is .
2. The quadrilateral QRST is on a coordinate plane.
3. The transformation is a reflection across the y-axis.
STEP 2
1. Analyze the effect of the transformation on side lengths.
2. Analyze the effect of the transformation on angles.
3. Analyze the effect of the transformation on orientation.
4. Analyze the effect of the transformation on area.
5. Analyze the effect of the transformation on perimeter.
STEP 3
The transformation is a reflection across the y-axis. Reflections are isometries, which means they preserve distances. Therefore, the corresponding side lengths of the quadrilateral QRST are not affected by the transformation.
STEP 4
Since reflections are isometries, they also preserve angles. Thus, the corresponding angles of the quadrilateral QRST are not affected by the transformation.
STEP 5
The transformation reverses the orientation of the quadrilateral. If the original quadrilateral had a clockwise orientation, the transformed quadrilateral will have a counterclockwise orientation, and vice versa.
STEP 6
The area of a shape is invariant under reflections. Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral QRST is not affected by the transformation.
STEP 7
Since reflections preserve distances, the perimeter of the quadrilateral QRST is not affected by the transformation.
