Question
- point c is the image of c under a reflection across the y - axis. find the coordinates of c.
c(7, -15)
- point p is the image of p under a reflection across the y = x. find the coordinates of p.
p(12.5, 31.5)
- point h is the image of h under a reflection across the y = -1. find the coordinates of h.
h(6, -9)
Step1: Reflect C over y-axis
For a point $(x,y)$, reflection over y-axis is $(-x,y)$.
For $C(7, -15)$: $C' = (-7, -15)$
Step2: Reflect P over $y=x$
For a point $(x,y)$, reflection over $y=x$ is $(y,x)$.
For $P(12.5, 31.5)$: $P' = (31.5, 12.5)$
Step3: Reflect H over $y=-1$
First, calculate vertical distance from $y$-coordinate to $y=-1$: $|-9 - (-1)| = |-8| = 8$.
Add twice this distance to original $y$-coordinate: $-9 + 2\times8 = -9 + 16 = 7$.
$x$-coordinate stays the same, so $H' = (6, 7)$
