(0,-2)

Solution

Finding the image of the given point reflected in the line Y=0:

The line y=0 is nothing but the X-axis,

We know that the image of a point (x,y)under the reflection in thex-axis isP'(x,-y)

where only the sign of ordinate(y) changes and the sign of abscissa(x) remains the same.

Therefore, the reflection of the point(0,-2) in the line y=0 will be the point(0,2).
