SWRT the origin: Replace (x,y) by (-x,-y) in the equation and simplify the resulting equation. If you get the original equation, then there is swrt the origin.
SWRT the x-axis: Replace (x,y) by (x,-y) in the equation and simplify the resulting equation. If you get the original equation, then there is swrt the x-axis.
SWRT the y-axis: Replace (x,y) by (-x,y) in the equation and simplify the resulting equation. If you get the original equation, then there is swrt the y-axis.
