Can you please help me with this question?

Reflection over the y-axis and a translation down two units

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see that the corners of the triangle have been vertically reflected because of their orientation and then you have to think about what that would look like and decide what else was done to the object. With this, we can tell that the object moved down 2 units.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

+2+=+%2836%2fx%29%5e2+

+2+=+1296%2fx%5e2+

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+
