Find the coordinate of the image point. O is the origin and P is the point (4,3). Ry and Rx are reflections around the x- and y- axes. Rx ° Do,2: (2,4) ----->

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ash2326 Can you help?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Let's mark the point P (4, 3)

OpenStudy (ash2326):

|dw:1349364447841:dw|

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Rx reflection around x axis. Think of x axis as a mirror P's image is Rx |dw:1349364535170:dw| Rx is in the same line as of P, so what do you think of its coordinates?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would it be -4, -3?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

|dw:1349364669545:dw| It lies on x=3 line, now what do you think are the coordinates? hint: along this line y coordinate changes but x coordinate doesn't

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, 4, -3. That makes sense.

OpenStudy (ash2326):

good :D now Ry, y-axis becomes mirror|dw:1349364832228:dw| What do you think are the coordinates?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4, 3

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Good :D Did you understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, but I have no clue what to do with the "°Do" portion of it.

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Sorry, I gotta go. @Callisto would you please help here?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@UnkleRhaukus @TuringTest would you help here?
