Question

Please helpIf point E above is reflected across the x-axis, what would be the coordinates of the reflection? Explain.

Answer 1

Given point E(3, -3)

we are required to reflect point E across the x-axis

Note that

When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate is taken to be the additive inverse. The reflection of point (x, y) across the x-axis is (x, -y).

Thus, point E(3, -3) after reflecting across the x-axis becomes

(3, -(-3))= (3, 3)

The answer is (3, 3)
