Question

m is the image of the point m after a reflection. m(5, 5) → m(-5, 5) over which axis was point m reflected? x - axis y - axis

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rules

Reflection over x - axis changes sign of y - coordinate. Reflection over y - axis changes sign of x - coordinate.

Step2: Analyze given points

Point M is (5, 5) and M' is (-5, 5). The x - coordinate changes sign from 5 to - 5 and y - coordinate remains the same.

Answer:

y - axis
