Question

which figure is a reflection of figure a?
figure c
which axis is the line of reflection?
x - axis y - axis

Explanation:

• Reflection: A transformation that flips a figure over a line (the line of reflection).
• For figure \(A\) and figure \(C\), if we consider the \(x\)-axis (\(y = 0\)), each point \((x,y)\) in figure \(A\) has a corresponding point \((x,-y)\) in figure \(C\). For example, if a point in figure \(A\) is \((x,y)\) (where \(y>0\)), in figure \(C\) the point is \((x,-y)\) (where \(-y < 0\)). This is the rule for reflection over the \(x\)-axis.

Answer:

• Which figure is a reflection of figure \(A\)? Figure \(C\)
• Which axis is the line of reflection? \(x -\)axis
