The point A(2, 3) is reflected in the x-axis to B, and B is then reflected in the y-axis to C. Write the coordinates of B and C and name the single transformation that maps A to C.

Original Khojo Papers practice question — not from a past board paper.
A'(−1, 1), B'(−4, 1), C'(−1, 5), and the area is unchanged at 6 square units.

A reflection is an isometry: it preserves distances, so lengths, angles and areas are all unchanged.
