Answer:

The correct answer option is (5, -6).

Explanation:

We know that the following are the coordinates of a point:

( - 5 , - 6 )

If this point is reflected through y axis, we are to find the coordinates of its image?

If a point is reflected through y-axis, the sign of the x coordinate is changed so we get:

( - 5 , -6 )
$\implies$ (5, -6)
