Transformations: Question 1

This is the old version of the Transformations online exercise. The new version can be found here.

A is the point (-4, 7). The blue shape is reflected in the x-axis.
What will be the coordinates of the image of point A?

This exercise consists of 30 questions. The first 18 are on reflections with increasing difficulty. The next 3 are translations and the final 9 are basic rotations. It may be helpful to make sketches of the questions on squared paper and use tracing paper to find the answers.

There is a printable worksheet to go with this activity.

Numeracy "Numeracy is a proficiency which is developed mainly in Mathematics but also in other subjects. It is more than an ability to do basic arithmetic. It involves developing confidence and competence with numbers and measures. It requires understanding of the number system, a repertoire of mathematical techniques, and an inclination and ability to solve quantitative or spatial problems in a range of contexts. Numeracy also demands understanding of the ways in which data are gathered by counting and measuring, and presented in graphs, diagrams, charts and tables."
