ECZ 2013 · O-Level Paper 1 — Geometrical Transformations

In the diagram, triangle A is mapped onto triangle B by a single transformation. Describe fully the transformation.

Diagram for ECZ 2013 · O-Level Paper 1
  • A. Rotation of 90 degrees clockwise about (2, 2)
  • B. Reflection in the line y = -x
  • C. Reflection in the line y = x
  • D. Rotation of 90 degrees anticlockwise about (2, 2)

Verified working — step 1

Triangle A has vertices (2, 2), (2, 6), (4, 6) and triangle B has vertices (2, 2), (6, 2), (6, 4). Each point (x, y) maps to (y, x), which is a reflection in the line y = …
