A reflection across the x-axis has the rule:
(x,y)→(x,-y).
Then:
- A(-1,-1)→A'(-1,1),
- B(0,1)→B'(0,-1),
- C(4,2)→C'(4,-2),
- D(6,0)→D'(6,0),
- E(3,-3)→E'(3,3).
Answer: the vertices of the image are A'(-1,1), B'(0,-1), C'(4,-2), D'(6,0) and E'(3,3).
Ex: l -3 l = 3.
the two vertical lines on either side stand for absolute value, or the distance to 0 from the given number.
THE ANSWER WILL ALWAYS BE POSITIVE (except...)
however, if there is a negative sign on the OUTSIDE of the bars, the answer will be NEGATIVE.
ex: - l -4 l = -4
ex: l -4 l = 4
