In Exercises 46-48, graph the polygon with the
given vertices and its image after the indicated
transformation.

To graph the polygon formed by the vertices , start by plotting each point on the Cartesian plane. Connect the vertices in order to create the triangle ABC.

Next, perform the reflection across the x-axis by changing the y-coordinates of each vertex to their opposites: . Plot these new points and connect them to visualize the reflected triangle A’B’C’. You’ll see a symmetrical triangle below the x-axis, mirroring the original triangle situated above!
