3. A. A horizontal translation 2 units to the right
B. A vertical translation 2 units down
C. A reflection across the x-axis
D. A reflection across the y-axis
6. A rotation turns a figure around a point,
called the center of rotation.

8. Example: Graphing Rotations on a Coordinate Plane
Graph the rotation of triangle ABC 90
counterclockwise about the origin.
Multiply the y-coordinate of each
vertex by –1, and switch the x
and y coordinates.
