Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the figure with exactly one line of symmetry
  • Figure I: A square has four lines of symmetry.
  • Figure II: A parallelogram has no lines of symmetry.
  • Figure III: An isosceles triangle has one line of symmetry.
  • Figure IV: A trapezoid has one line of symmetry.

Answer: Figure III

Step 2: Reflect the triangle over the x-axis

Given vertices:

  • G(0,2) G(0, -2)
  • Y(3,0) Y(-3, 0)
  • M(3,4) M(-3, -4)

Reflecting over the x-axis:

  • G(0,2) G'(0, 2)
  • Y(3,0) Y'(-3, 0) (no change as it lies on the x-axis)
  • M(3,4) M'(-3, 4)
Step 3: Rotate the triangle 90° clockwise

Using the reflected coordinates:

  • G(0,2) G'(0, 2)
  • Y(3,0) Y'(-3, 0)
  • M(3,4) M'(-3, 4)

Rotating 90° clockwise:

  • G(2,0) G''(2, 0)
  • Y(0,3) Y''(0, 3)
  • M(4,3) M''(4, 3)

Final Answer

  1. Figure with exactly one line of symmetry: Figure III
  2. Reflected coordinates over the x-axis:
    • G(0,2) G'(0, 2)
    • Y(3,0) Y'(-3, 0)
    • M(3,4) M'(-3, 4)
  3. Rotated coordinates 90° clockwise:
    • G(2,0) G''(2, 0)
    • Y(0,3) Y''(0, 3)
    • M(4,3) M''(4, 3)
