Method: Reflecting a Point
Practice questions for Transformations: Reflections
A point P has coordinates (3, 5). It is reflected in the x-axis. What are the coordinates of its image P'?
Fully describe the single transformation that maps shape A onto shape B. Shape A has vertices at (1, 1), (3, 1), (3, 4) and shape B has vertices at (−1, 1), (−3, 1), (−3, 4).
