Question

If the point D (-6, 9) is reflected over the x-axis, the coordinates of D’ would be?

Answer 1

D'(-6, -9)

Explanation:

When a point is reflected over the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same. The reflected point is the same distance from the x-axis as the original point, but it's on the other side of the x-axis, so the y-coordinate changes sign.

In general, point (x, y) reflected over the x-axis becomes point (x, -y).

Here, point D(-6, 9) becomes point D'(-6, -9).
