Question

A point located at (-5, -6) is reflected over the y-axis. What are the coordinates of the image? (-5, 6) (5, -6) (5, 6) (-6, -5)

Answer 1

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)
