Question

  1. if triangle abc was reflected over the x - axis, what would be the coordinates of b? (3,4) (4,-3) (-4,-3) (3,-4)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected over the x - axis, the rule is $(x,y)\to(x, - y)$.

Step2: Identify original coordinates of B

The original coordinates of point B from the graph are $(3,-4)$.

Step3: Apply the reflection rule

Using the rule $(x,y)\to(x, - y)$ for point B with $x = 3$ and $y=-4$, we get $(3, -(-4))=(3,4)$.

Answer:

$(3,4)$
