1. Complete the following table:

Point Transformation Image
(a) (5, -7) _______________ (-5, 7)
(b) (4, 2) Reflection in x-axis _____
(c) _____ Reflection in y-axis (0, 6)
(d) (6, -6) _______________ (-6, 6)
(e) (4, -8) _______________ (-4, -8)

Solution:

Point Transformation Image
(a) (5, -7) Reflection in origin (-5, 7)
(b) (4, 2) Reflection in x-axis (4, -2)
(c) (0, 6) Reflection in y-axis (0, 6)
(d) (6, -6) Reflection in origin (-6, 6)
(e) (4, -8) Reflection in y-axis (-4, -8)

2. A point P is its own image under the reflection in a line l. Describe the position of point the P with respect to the line l.

Solution:

As, the image of the point P is the same point under the reflection in the line l we can say, point P is an invariant point.

Thus, the position of point P remains unaltered.

3. State the co-ordinates of the following points under reflection in x-axis:

(i) (3, 2)

(ii) (-5, 4)

(iii) (0, 0)

Solution:

(i) (3, 2)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the x-axis are (3, -2).

(ii) (-5, 4)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the x-axis are (-5, -4).

(iii) (0, 0)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the x-axis are (0, 0).

4. State the co-ordinates of the following points under reflection in y-axis:

(i) (6, -3)

(ii) (-1, 0)

(iii) (-8, -2)

Solution

(i) (6, -3)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the y-axis are (-6, -3).

(ii) (-1, 0)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the y-axis are (1, 0).

(iii) (-8, -2)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the y-axis are (8, -2).

5. State the co-ordinates of the following points under reflection in origin:

(i) (-2, -4)

(ii) (-2, 7)

(iii) (0, 0)

Solution:

(i) (-2, -4)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in origin are (2, 4).

(ii) (-2, 7)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in origin are (2, -7).

(iii) (0, 0)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in origin are (0, 0).

6. State the co-ordinates of the following points under reflection in the line x = 0:

(i) (-6, 4)

(ii) (0, 5)

(iii) (3, -4)

Solution:

(i) (-6, 4)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the line x = 0 are (6, 4).

(ii) (0, 5)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the line x = 0 are (0, 5).

(iii) (3, -4)

The co-ordinates of the given point under reflection in the line x = 0 are (-3, -4).

7. State the co-ordinates of the following points under reflection in the line y = 0:

(i) (-3, 0)

(ii) (8, -5)

(iii) (-1, -3)

Solution:

(i) (-3, 0)

The co-ordinate of the given point under reflection in the line y = 0 is (-3, 0).

(ii) (8, -5)

The co-ordinate of the given point under reflection in the line y = 0 is (8, 5).

(iii) (-1, -3)

The co-ordinate of the given point under reflection in the line y = 0 is (-1, 3).

8. A point P is reflected in the x-axis. Co-ordinates of its image are (-4, 5).

(i) Find the co-ordinates of P.

(ii) Find the co-ordinates of the image of P under reflection in the y-axis.

Solution:

(i) As, Mx (-4, -5) = (-4, 5)

Hence, the co-ordinates of P are (-4, -5).

(ii) Co-ordinates of the image of P under reflection in the y-axis (4, -5).

9. A point P is reflected in the origin. Co-ordinates of its image are (-2, 7).

(i) Find the co-ordinates of P.

(ii) Find the co-ordinates of the image of P under reflection in the x-axis.

Solution:

(i) As, MO (2, -7) = (-2, 7)

Hence, the co-ordinates of P are (2, -7).

(ii) Co-ordinates of the image of P under reflection in the x-axis (2, 7)
