Answer:
The answer is (4,7) because when we reflect a point over y-axis then x coordinate becomes negative of x coordinate and y axis remains same.
What is the reflection of the point (1, 2) in the line y = 3?
There are at least two ways of doing so.
Method 1
The line y = 3 is parallel to x-axis.
Let the required image is P′
By common sense, we know
(Distance between the line y = 3 and point P) = (Distance between line y= 3 and point P′)
Since line joining PP′ is perpendicular to y = 3, the x- coordinates of P′ will remain 1. The y coordinate must be 4 because the distance between line and P is equal to 3 - 2 = 1).
Reflected point P′ should also be 1 unit away from the line making y-coordinate (3 + 1 = 4).
Required point = P′ = (1,4)
Method 2
The line y = 3 bisects the line joining P and P′.
The midpoint of th
Let A = (6,2), and let B be the reflection of A over the line y = 1/2 (x) + 5. What are the coordinates of B?
Since the line joining A and B is perpendicular to the line(mirror) and intersects it at the point P with AP=BP.
