A square has one side increased in length by two inches and an adjacent side decreased in length by two inches. If the resulting rectangle has an area of 60 square inches, what was the area of the original square? First, draw some possible squares and rectangles to see if you can solve by guess-and-check. Then, solve it algebraically.

Answercounterclockwise rotation about the origin by 180 degrees followed by reflection about the y-axisexplanationthe given figure has verticesrecall that for counterclockwise rotation about the origin, when we rotate figure pqrs counterclockwise through an angle of 180° about the origin, the coordinates will becomenext, we reflect in the y-axis by negating the x-coordinates of the resulting figure to obtain,therefore the correct answer is c
