Answer:

He is wrong since reflecting the image across the x-axis means reflecting it on the axis that is horizontal and reflecting it over the y-axis means reflecting it on the y-axis which is verticle.

Answer:No, it would not be the same if you reflect it from the X axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

because the the shape is not "on" the X axis. When you reflect the shape across the X axis, then you will not really get a shape. It's easier if you imagine you put a mirror on the x axis and looked at it. Malik would have to shift the whole shape down so that the current points (3,1) and (-3,1) would change to (3,0) and (-3,0) Also shifting down the other two points too. Reflecting it is like if you had the shape in paper and you folded it in half. If it matches perfectly, then you know that you have a match and that it is reflecting. If it doesn't fold perfectly, then it doesn't reflect. So if you folded the shape from the X axis, you wouldn't get a perfect match so he is wrong. Does it help?
