| A ● (4, -5)

V

The point is listed, labeled as A. To reflect, all we have to do is go up twice the absolute amount of the y value, so the absolute value of 5 times 2.

| A' ● (4, 5)

(<---------------|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|--|---------> x

| A ● (4, -5)

V

This new point is labelled as A'.

(4, 5) is the new coordinate.
