Answer:
We have been given the points origin and P (4,3)
We have reflection rule which is:
The given point x=4 and y=3 when reflected around y-axis the point becomes:
(-4,3)
The given point x=4 and y=3 when reflected around x-axis the point becomes:
(4,-3)
Answer with explanation:
When a point is reflected across either through x or y axis ,then perpendicular distance of that point from x or y axis called Preimage is equal to perpendicular distance of that point from x or y axis called image.
When a point is reflected through x axis or y axis,it totally depends on which quadrant the point is lying.
If point(a,b) is lying in first Quadrant ,and then we have to find it's reflection across x axis and y axis then coordinate of image point will be ,which will lie in fourth Quadrant and second quadrant respectively ,will have coordinates (a,-b) and (-a,b) respectively.
These are rules of reflection across x and y axis of point(a,b),where a and b are positive real number
Using the Same rule when point (4,3) is reflected around x and y axes
