Question

iv. reflections of figures on the coo
topic practice
a. sketch the reflection of the figure in each giv
over the specified axis or line.

1. reflect the triangle over the x - axis.
2. reflect the rhombus over the x - axis.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify original vertices

Assume original vertices: (2,3), (4,5), (6,3) (estimated from grid).

Step2: Apply reflection over x-axis

Rule: (x,y)→(x,-y). New vertices: (2,-3), (4,-5), (6,-3).

Step3: Sketch reflected triangle

Plot (2,-3), (4,-5), (6,-3) and connect.

Answer:

The reflected triangle has vertices at (2,-3), (4,-5), (6,-3) (coordinates estimated from grid), forming a mirror image below the x-axis.
