Question

1 reflect over the x - axis. click to select polygon abc

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

The rule for reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the x - axis is $(x,-y)$.

Step2: Find new coordinates of point A

Let's assume point A has coordinates $(2,3)$. After reflection over the x - axis, its new coordinates $A'$ are $(2,- 3)$.

Step3: Find new coordinates of point B

Suppose point B has coordinates $(3,2)$. After reflection, its new coordinates $B'$ are $(3,-2)$.

Step4: Find new coordinates of point C

If point C has coordinates $(5,2)$, after reflection, its new coordinates $C'$ are $(5,-2)$.

Step5: Plot the new polygon

Plot the points $A'(2,-3)$, $B'(3,-2)$ and $C'(5,-2)$ and connect them to form polygon $A'B'C'$.

Answer:

Plot points with coordinates obtained by changing the sign of the y - coordinate of each vertex of the original polygon and connect them to form the reflected polygon.
