Answer: The explanation is given below.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to explain the process of determining the co-ordinates of a figure after a reflection over either axis.
When a point gets reflected over x axis, then we see that its y co-ordinate changes its sign.
And, when a point gets reflected over y axis, then its x co-ordinate changes its sign.
That is, if the co-ordinates of a point are (a, b).
Then,
after reflection from x axis, its co-ordinate becomes (a, -b) and
after reflection over y axis, its co-ordinate becomes (-a, b).
The reflections of the point (2, 3) over x-axis and y-axis are shown in the attached figure below.
