Samantha drew Triangle JKL with the coordinates (2,3), (4, 3) and (5,2). She reflected this image over the x-axis to create an image. What are coordinates of this image?

Answer :

Answer:

J'(2,-3), K'(4, -3) and L'(5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has vertices at  J(2,3), K(4, 3) and L(5,2).

The transformation rule for a reflection in the x-axis is:

[tex](x,y)\to (x,-y)[/tex]

We substitute the points to obtain the coordinates  of the image triangle  J'K'L'

[tex]J(2,3)\to J'(2,-3)[/tex]

[tex]K(4,3)\to K'(4,-3)[/tex]

[tex]L(5,2)\to L'(5,-2)[/tex]

In other words, we negate the y-coordinates of triangle JKL to obtain the coordinates of J'K'L'
