Class 10 Mathematics - Reflection (Questions & Solutions)

### Question 1: Reflection over the x-axis


Find the reflection of point P(5, -3) over the x-axis.

**Solution:**
Using the rule (x, y) -> (x, -y),
New coordinates of P' = (5, 3).

### Question 2: Reflection over the y-axis


Find the reflection of point Q(-7, 4) over the y-axis.

**Solution:**
Using the rule (x, y) -> (-x, y),
New coordinates of Q' = (7, 4).

### Question 3: Reflection over the line y = x


Find the reflection of point R(2, -5) over the line y = x.

**Solution:**
Using the rule (x, y) -> (y, x),
New coordinates of R' = (-5, 2).

### Question 4: Reflection over the line y = -x


Find the reflection of point S(-6, 8) over the line y = -x.

**Solution:**
Using the rule (x, y) -> (-y, -x),
New coordinates of S' = (-8, 6).

### Question 5: Reflection of a Triangle


A triangle has vertices A(1, 2), B(3, 4), and C(5, -6).
Find the reflection of the triangle over the x-axis.

**Solution:**
Using the rule (x, y) -> (x, -y):
- A'(1, -2)
- B'(3, -4)
- C'(5, 6)

The new triangle has vertices A'(1, -2), B'(3, -4), and C'(5, 6).

### Question 6: General Reflection Formula


A point T(a, b) is reflected over the y-axis, then over the x-axis.
Find the final coordinates.

**Solution:**
Step 1: Reflection over the y-axis: (a, b) -> (-a, b)
Step 2: Reflection over the x-axis: (-a, b) -> (-a, -b)

Final coordinates of T' = (-a, -b).
