Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.138 Using Coordinate Rules for Transformations skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Hard
Starting with (-1, -5), a point is translated 8 units right and 1 unit down and then reflected across the line y = -x. It ends at (6, -7). Which rule matches the overall transformation?
A(x, y) -> (-x - 8, -y + 1)
B(x, y) -> (-y + 1, -x - 8)
C(x, y) -> (-y + 1, x + 8)
D(x, y) -> (-y, -x)
Solution & Explanation:Apply the steps in order. First, translation 8 units right and 1 unit down gives (x, y) -> (x + 8, y - 1). Then reflection across the line y = -x changes that to (x, y) -> (-y + 1, -x - 8). Using (-1, -5) confirms the overall image is (6, -7).
Problem 2Difficulty: Hard
A point (x, y) is transformed in two steps: first rotate it 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin, then reflect it across the line y = -x. Which coordinate rule gives the final image?
A(x, y) -> (x, -y)
B(x, y) -> (-y, -x)
C(x, y) -> (-x, y)
D(x, y) -> (-x, -y)
Solution & Explanation:Apply the steps in order. First, 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin gives (x, y) -> (-y, x). Then reflection across the line y = -x changes that to (x, y) -> (-x, y).
Problem 3Difficulty: Hard
A vertex of pentagon LMNOP starts at (1, 4). After being dilated from the origin by a scale factor of 3 and then rotated 180 degrees about the origin, it lands at (-3, -12). Which coordinate rule describes the full transformation?
A(x, y) -> (-x, -y)
B(x, y) -> (3x, -3y)
C(x, y) -> (-3x, 3y)
D(x, y) -> (-3x, -3y)
Solution & Explanation:Apply the steps in order. First, dilation with scale factor 3 gives (x, y) -> (3x, 3y). Then 180-degree rotation about the origin changes that to (x, y) -> (-3x, -3y). Using (1, 4) confirms the overall image is (-3, -12).
