The image of the point (-5, 7) in y-axis has the coordinates
(a) (5, 7)
(b) (-5, -7)
(c) (5, -7)
(d) (7, -5)
Given: Point (-5, 7)
To find: Coordinates of the image of the point (-5, 7) in y-axis.
Solution:
Here y-axis acts as a plane mirror.
Rules to find the reflection of a point in the y-axis:
(i) Change the sign of abscissa i.e., x-coordinate.
(ii) Retain the ordinate i.e., y-coordinate.
So, coordinates of the required point is:
(5, 7)
