Question

What is the reflection of the point (- 2, 5) in the line x = 1?

Answer 1

(4,5)

Explanation:

Point (-2,5)

Reflect over x = 1

We see that the x = 1 is a vertical line. When we reflect over a vertical line, the x will change.

To get from 1 to -2, we go left 3. So, to get the reflection, we go right 3.

So, the reflection point will be at (4,5)
