Question

if \\(\delta abc\\) is reflected across the \\(y\\)-axis, what are the coordinates of \\(a\\)?

a. \\((-1, -3)\\)
b. \\((5, -3)\\)
c. \\((1, -3)\\)
d. \\((-1, 3)\\)

Explanation:

Identify the coordinates of point A

Using the Coordinate Geometry Transformations knowledge point

$$ A = (1, 3) $$

Apply reflection across the y-axis

Using the Reflection Across Axis knowledge point

$$ (x, y) ightarrow (-x, y) $$
$$ A'(x', y') = (-1, 3) $$

Answer:

  • A. \((-1, -3)\)
  • B. \((5, -3)\)
  • C. \((1, -3)\)
  • D. \((-1, 3)\) (Correct answer)
