Answer:

Graph

Explanation:

If point P has coordinates (x1, y1) and point Q has coordinates (x2, y2), and PQ is reflected across the X-axis, the coordinates of the reflected points P' and Q' can be obtained by flipping the y-coordinates of P and Q and keeping the x-coordinates the same.

Therefore, the coordinates of P' will be (x1, -y1) and the coordinates of Q' will be (x2, -y2).

So, if you want to find the coordinates of the reflected line segment P'Q', you just need to take the coordinates of P' and Q' and connect them with a line. The resulting line segment will have endpoints (x1, -y1) and (x2, -y2).

Note that the length of the reflected line segment P'Q' will be the same as the length of the original line segment PQ, but the orientation of the reflected line segment will be reversed with respect to the X-axis.
