Question

Reflection over the y-axis Example 1 Image Orginal Original Image A A Point Coordinates Point Coordinates B 2 A (2,6) Α' ΤΟ O B (8,4) B' с (2, 4) C'

Answer 1

Given the coordinates of the original object as

A (2, 6)

B (8, 4)

C(2, 4)

Since we are reflecting the image over the y axis, the coordinates of the new image will be expressed as (-x, y)

The x coordinates will be negated but the y coordinates remains the same as shown:

A' = (-2, 6), B' = (-8, 4) and C' = (-2, 4)

This gives the coordinates of the new image formed after reflecting over the y axis
