Question

Help with Reflections?

Answer 1

Use graph paper to figure it out.

First reflect the point over the line y = -5, then afterwards, reflect the point over the line x = 1.

I have no idea why I have not bought graph paper.

Answer 3

Can I not figure out the "equation" without graph paper?

At (1, -5)
