Question

A (5, 3), B (2, 1), and C (-2, 4) are the coordinates of a triangle's vertices. If the triangle is reflected over the x-axis, what are the coordinates of the image?

1. A'(5, -3), B'(2, -1), C'(-2, -4)
2. A'(-5, 3), B'(-2, 1), C'(-2, 4)
3. A'(-5, 3), B'(-2, 1), C'(2, 4)
4. A'(-5, -3), B'(-2, -1), C'(2, -4)

Answer 1

1 is the answer

Explanation:

When coordinates are reflected over the x axis, the x coordinates stay the same but the y coordinates becomes either negative, if they were positive, or positive, if they had orginally been negative.

If this doesn't make sense i'l try to rephrase it, hope it helps though :)
