Question

What are coordinate of mirror image of point (2,3) along X-axis ?

Answer 1

To find the co-ordinates in the adjoining figure, x-axis represents the plain mirror. M is the point in the rectangular axes in the first quadrant whose co-ordinates are (h, k).

When point M is reflected in x-axis, the image M’ is formed in the fourth quadrant whose co-ordinates are (h, -k). Thus we conclude that when a point is reflected in x-axis, then the x-co-ordinate remains same, but the y-co-ordinate becomes negative.

Thus, the image of point M (h, k) is M' (h, -k).

Therefore answer is (2,-3)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

on the x axis change sign of y cordinate only

on the y axis change sign of cordinate x only

on origin change sign of both cordinate x and y

so correct answer is (2,-3) mirror on x axis is your answer

so correct answer is (-2,3) mirror on y axis

so correct answer is (-2,-3) mirror on origin axis
