Transformations, SMB-015

Gabby put 5 points on a grid and labelled them `A` to `E`, as shown on the diagram below.

Point `A` is 35 millimetres from point `D.`

Gabby adds a sixth point, `F` so that the arrangement of points has one line of symmetry.

How far is point `F` from point `B?`  (3 marks)

`42\ text{mm}`

Show Worked Solution

`A\ text(to)\ D\ text(is 35 mm)`

`=> 1\ text(grid is 7 mm × 7 mm)`
 

`text(Point)\ F\ text(is added below:)`

`:.\ text(Distance)\ B\ text(to)\ F`

`= 6 xx 7`

`= 42\ text(mm)`
