Question

Type the correct answer in each box. The reflection of point S across the y-axis is point . The reflection of point Q across the x-axis and the y-axis is point , whose coordinates are (, ).

Answer 1

i dont get it either

Explanation:

Answer 2

`S' = (-5,-5)`

`Q`

Explanation:

Given

`S = (5,-5)`

`Q= (5,5)`

Solving (a): Reflect S across y-axis

The rule to reflect across y-axis is:

`(x,y) \to (-x,y)`

So, we have:

`S(5,-5) \to S'(-5,-5)`

Hence:

`S' = (-5,-5)`

Solving (b): Reflect Q across x and y-axis

The rule to reflect across x-axis is:

`(x,y) \to (x,-y)`

So:

`Q(5,5) \to Q'(5,-5)`

The rule to reflect across y-axis is:

`(x,y) \to (-x,y)`

So:

`Q'(5,-5) \to Q`

Hence:

`Q`
