Answer:
Area of triangle ABC=7 square units
Area of triangle A'B'C'=7 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC is the preimage of triangle A'B'C' under a reflection in the line x=0.
The two triangles are congruent so they have the same area.
We can calculate the area by counting the unit squares the triangle covered.
Each full box is 1 units square.
Each triangle covered
1 full box and 12 partially covered boxes.
Each partial box covered is 0.5 square units.
Therefore the area is
[tex]Area=1+0.5\times12[/tex]
[tex]Area=1+6[/tex]
[tex]Area=7[/tex] square units
