Question

Write the coordinates the reflections of point (3, 5) in x and y-axes.

Answer 1

We have to find the reflection of (3, 5) along x-axis and y-axis.

Reflection of any point P(a, b) along x-axis is (a, b) 

So reflection of (3, 5) along x-axis is (-3, -5) 

Similarly, reflection of any point P(a, b) along y-axis is (-a, b) 

So, reflection of (3, 5) along y-axis is (-3, 5).
