Triangle ABC is graphed on the coordinate plane below. If △ABC is reflected over the y-axis to create △A′B′C′, which statement is always true?
AThe area of △ABC is equal to the area of △A′B′C′.
BThe coordinates of A′ are the same as the coordinates of A.
CThe slope of AB is equal to the slope of A′B′.
D△ABC and △A′B′C′ have different orientations but different perimeters.
The figure below shows △LMN. If △LMN is translated by T−3,2 and then reflected over the line y=x, what are the coordinates of the final image of point M?
