Question

how does reflecting a figure over the x - axis affect its coordinates? a. the x - coordinates change sign. b. both coordinates change sign. c. the y - coordinates change sign. d. the y - coordinates remain unchanged.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When reflecting a point or figure over the x - axis, the x - coordinate stays the same as the distance from the y - axis does not change. The y - coordinate changes sign because the point moves from one side of the x - axis to the other.

Answer:

c. The y - coordinates change sign.
