Question

The point P (3, – 8) is reflected in origin to point Q. The Point Q is further reflected in the x-axis to point R. Find :
(i) the co-ordinates of Q
(ii) the co-ordinates of R
(iii) the image of P (3, – 8) in the y-axis.

Answer 1

(i) The image of the given point P (3, – 8) when reflected in origin is Q whose co-ordinates will be (- 3, 8).

(ii) The image of Q (- 3, 8) when reflected in x-axis is R whose co-ordinates will be (-3,-8)

(iii) Tlie image of P (3, 8) in y-axis is R whose co-ordinates are (- 3, – 8).
