Question

Point A is located at (2, 3) on the coordinate plane. Point A is reflected over the x-axis to form point B and over the y-axis to form point C. Then, point A is reflected over both axes to form point D. The four points become vertices of a quadrilateral. What is the most precise name for the quadrilateral formed, and how do you know?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Well if point A is on (2,3) and you reflect it over the x axis point B would be located at (2,-3).

Then over the y axis point C would be located at (-2,-3), then reflecting that over the x axis point D is (-2,3)

Points

__________

A. (2,3)

B. (2,-3)

C. (-2,-3)

D. (-2,3)

__________

So graphing all these points we get a rectangle.

Because it has 4 sides that are 90 degrees and the sides opposite from each other are the same.
