Given: The square STUV

To Determine: The coordinate of the image after reflection over the y-axis

Solution

The reflection over the y-axis rule is


(x,y)\rightarrow(-x,y)

Locate the coordinates of STUV

Let us apply the rule to get the coordinate of the image


\begin{gathered} S(-10,-10)\rightarrow S^(\prime)(10,-10) \\ T(0,-10)\rightarrow T^(\prime)(0,-10) \\ U(0,0)\rightarrow U^(\prime)(0,0) \\ V(-10,0)\rightarrow V^(\prime)(10,0) \end{gathered}

Hence, the coordinate of the image after a reflection over the y-axis is

S'(10, - 10)

T'(0, - 10)

U'(0, 0)

V'(10, 0)
