A triangle in the coordinate plane has coordinates of (2,3), (-4,-5), and (-2, 4). It is reflected about the x-axis. What are its new coordinates? A) (-2,3), (4,-5), (2,4) B) (-2,-3), (4,5), (2,-4) C) (2,-3), (-4,5), (-2,-4) D) (-2,-3), (-4,-5), (-2,-4)
Can you tell me what it means to reflect about the X axis?
When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same, but the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite. The reflection of the point (x, y) across the y-axis is the point (-x, y). When you reflect a point across the line y = x, the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate change places.
it means basically like a mirror reflect
