Question

Find the coordinates of the image of each of the following points under the reflection in the origin.

$(2,-5)$

Answer 1

Finding the coordinates of the image under the reflection in the origin:

The reflection of a point $P\left(x,y\right)$ in the origin is given by$P\text{'}\left(-x,-y\right)$.

Thus,

$X$coordinate after reflection will become$-2$,

And $Y$ coordinate after reflection will become$5$.

Hence, the coordinate of the image of the point under the reflection in the origin is$(-2,5)$.
