Question

  1. a reflection over the x - axis changes the coordinates of the point (4,6) to: a. (-4,6) b. (-4,-6) c. (4,6) d. (4,-6)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the x - axis, the x - coordinate remains the same and the y - coordinate changes its sign.

Step2: Apply rule to point

For the point $(4,6)$, x = 4 and y = 6. After reflection over the x - axis, the new point is $(4,- 6)$.

Answer:

d. $(4,-6)$
