- A’ is the image of A when reflected in the x-axis. Write down the co-ordinates of A’ and plot it on the graph paper.
- B’ is the image of B when reflected in the y-axis, followed by reflection in the origin. Write down the co-ordinates of B’ and plot it on the graph paper.

Solution
- The points A (3, 5) and B (–2, –4) can be plotted on a graph as shown.
- A’ = Image of A when reflected in the x-axis = (3, –5)
- C = Image of B when reflected in the y-axis = (2, –4) B’ = Image when C is reflected in the origin = (–2, 4)

- Any point that remains unaltered under a given transformation is called an invariant. Thus, the required two points are (3, 0) and (–2, 0).
