Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the transformation from ΔABC to ΔA'B'C'

Triangle A'B'C' is obtained from triangle ABC by a rotation and a translation. First, reflect ΔABC across the x-axis. Then translate the reflected triangle 5 units to the left.

Step 2: Write the composition of rigid motions

The reflection across the x-axis is denoted by \(r_{x-axis}\). The translation 5 units to the left is denoted by \(T_{\langle -5, 0 \rangle}\). The composition of transformations is performed from right to left. So, the transformation is \(T_{\langle -5, 0 \rangle} \circ r_{x-axis}\).

Step 3: Find the coordinates of P' under \(T_{\langle-2,0\rangle} \circ r_{m}\)

The coordinates of P are (1, 1). First, reflect P across line m (y=2). The y-coordinate of the reflected point is 2 + (2-1) = 3. The x-coordinate remains the same. So, the reflected point is (1, 3). Next, translate the point (1,3) by <-2, 0>. This means moving the point 2 units to the left. The new coordinates are (1 - 2, 3) = (-1, 3).

Step 4: Find the coordinates of P' under \(T_{\langle 0,-5\rangle} \circ r_{n}\)

The coordinates of P are (1, 1). First, reflect P across line n (x=-1). The x-coordinate of the reflected point is -1 - (1 - (-1)) = -1 - 2 = -3. The y-coordinate remains the same. So the reflected point is (-3, 1). Next, translate the point (-3, 1) by <0, -5>. This means moving the point 5 units down. The new coordinates are (-3, 1 - 5) = (-3, -4).

Final Answer

  1. \( \boxed{T_{\langle -5, 0 \rangle} \circ r_{x-axis}} \)
  2. \( \boxed{(-1, 3)} \)
  3. \( \boxed{(-3, -4)} \)
