Question

A triangle has points A (1,2) B (1,6) and C (3,6) and is reflected over the x-axis. A'B'C' are the coordinates of the reflected image. What is the B' coordinate?

Answer 1

When you reflect any point (x,y) over the x axis it becomes the point (x,-y)

Answer 2

so it would be 1,-6

Answer 3

yep (1,-6)

Answer 4

would if they both are negative? i.e (-1,-6)

Answer 5

what if you mean?

Answer 6

lol yeah

Answer 7

the same rule applies, only the y coordinate will change in sign

(-1,-6) -----> (-1,6)

Answer 8

this is the same rule of reflecting over the x axis
