Reflecting the archaeological dig implies that the dig is flipped
The vertices of the second outlined rectangle after completing both reflections are (-5,-2),(-5,-9),(-10,-9) and (-10,-2)
The coordinates of the rectangle are given as:
(5,2) , (5,9) , (10,9) , (10,2)
When reflected across the x and the y axes, the transformation rule is:
[tex](x,y) \to (-x,-y)[/tex]
So, the new coordinates are:
(-5,-2),(-5,-9),(-10,-9),(-10,-2)
This means that:
The vertices of the second outlined rectangle after completing both reflections are (-5,-2),(-5,-9),(-10,-9) and (-10,-2)
