Question

if the following line segment is reflected across the x-axis what are the coordinates new endpoints A.) (-1,-6) and (-3,-2) B.) (6,-1) and (2,-3) C.) (1,-6) and ( 3,-2) D.) (-6,1) and (-2,3​

Answer 1

A.) (-1,-6) and (-3,-2)

Explanation:

The given line segment has coordinates

(-1,6) and (-3,2)

The mapping for a reflection in the x-axis is

`(x,y)\to (x,-y)`

This implies that;

`(-1,6)\to (-1,-6)`

and

`(-3,2)\to (-3,-2)`

The correct choice is A.
