Look at the figure below: Triangle ABC is a right triangle with an angle ABC equal to 90 degrees. The length of AC is 7 units and the length of AB is 5 units. D is a point above C. Triangle ADC is a right triangle with angle DAC equal to 90 degrees and DC parallel to AB.

What is the length, in units, of segment CD?

6
8.5
7
9.8

given that triangle abc is transformed two times to get triangle

a"b"c"

first abc is transformed in to a'b'c' as follows:

the coordinates of a are (1,-1) and transformed into a'(-1,1)

similarly b (4,-2) became b'(-4,2) and

c(7,-2) became c'(-7,2)

i.e. (x,y) becomes (-x,-y)

this is nothing but reflection about a point here origin.

thus first transformation is reflection on the origin.

next is exactly shifting 3 units down
