The diagram shows triangles A and B. [Figure: Coordinate plane with triangle A (vertices at approx (3,2), (5,1), (4,2)) and triangle B (vertices at approx (-3,-2), (-5,-1), (-4,-2))].
- (a)Describe fully the single transformation that maps triangle A onto triangle B.[2]
- (b)Triangle A is mapped onto triangle C by a rotation, 90° anti-clockwise about the origin. On the diagram, draw triangle C.[2]

Mark scheme
Marking points from the official mark scheme (May/June 2017). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.
- [2] (a) Reflection
- y = -x oe
- C1 for reflection or for y = -x oe
- [2] (b) Triangle vertices (–1, 2), (–1, 5), (–2, 4)
- C1 for correct size and orientation, incorrect position
- or for 90° clockwise rotation about origin
