A line segment has endpoints at (1 ,5 )(1,5) and (0 ,1 )(0,1). If the line segment is rotated about the origin by pi π, translated horizontally by - 4 4, and reflected about the y-axis, what will the line segment's new endpoints be?

"the line segment's new end points are:"A1(5,-5) " and "B1(4,-1)the line segment's new end points are:A1(5,5) and B1(4,1)

"first; draw line segment AB like figure above"first; draw line segment AB like figure above

"now rotate the line segment about the origin by "pi now rotate the line segment about the origin by π

"now "A(1,5) rArr " "A'(-1,-5)

B(0,1) rArr" "B'(0,-1)

enter image source here

"translate horizontally by -4"

"now "A'(-1,-5) " is " A''(-1-4,-5)=(-5,-5)
B'(0,-1) " is " B''(0-4,-1)=(-4,-1)
