Question 134894: If I have to Let ABC have vertices a(-6,3),B(-1,-4), and C(3,-5).Give the coordinates of the vertices of the image after the specified transformation.
17. Reflection in the x-axis
How does that work? Any help with this equation would be appreciated.:)
Answer by scott8148(6628)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! reflection is like the image you see in a mirror, the image seems as far away from the other side of the mirror as you are
the reflected vertices are the same distance from the x-axis (mirror) as the original vertices, but on the other side
operationally; since the x-axis is the reflector, the x values stay the same and the y values change sign
new vertices __ A(-6,-3), B(-1,4), C(3,5)
