Question

When the point ( Square 3,2) is reflected across the Y axis what is the resulting image

Answer 1

Step 1:

The rule for a reflection over the y -axis is (x,y)→(−x,y) .

Step 2:

When a point (3, 2) is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate will change from positive 3 to negative 3 while the y-coordinate remains unchanged.

Step 3

Coordinates of the pre-image = ( 3, 2 )

Coordinates of the image = ( -3 , 2 )

Final answer

Resulting image = ( -3 , 2 )
