Study Notes

Reflection Rules

  • Reflection across the y-axis follows the rule: (x, y) → (-x, y).
  • Reflection across the x-axis follows the rule: (x, y) → (x, -y).

Coordinate Transformation

  • For point D at coordinates (a, b), reflecting over the line y = x results in new coordinates D' being (b, a).

Geometry Reflection Examples

  • Trapezoid LMNP reflected over the y-axis produces a new figure; in a given context, figure C is the resulting image.
  • When reflecting triangle ΔABC across line PT, properties include: the segments C'Q = QC, PT is perpendicular to A'A, A'A is parallel to B'B, and angle m∠TRB is 90°.

Lines of Reflection

  • To map point K to K' at (-5, 2), the line of reflection is the y-axis.
  • To map point L to L' at (-2, 3), the line of reflection is y = -x.

Vertex Reflections

  • Reflecting ΔRST across the line y = -x will position one vertex at (2, -3).

Effects of Reflection Across the x-axis

  • After reflection across the x-axis, point D at coordinates (0, 4) becomes D' at (0, -4).
  • Point E at (-2, 0) remains unchanged after reflection, resulting in E' at (-2, 0).
  • The distance from G' to the x-axis post-reflection is 2 units.

Quadrant Location After Reflection

  • Reflecting point P located at (-4, -7) across the x-axis results in P' being positioned in Quadrant II.

Pre-image Coordinates

  • Reflecting figure ABCDE across the line y = x results in the pre-image of point E' being at coordinates (-2, 6).
  • The pre-image of a point corresponding to the image (-4, 9) under the rule y = -x is found to be (-9, 4).
