Consider the triangle with the vertices at (2, 3), (4, 3), and (5, 2). If this triangle is reflected over the x-axis, what are the new coordinates of the reflected image?
To reflect a point over the x-axis, we simply change the sign of its y-coordinate and keep the x-coordinate the same. Since we need to reflect a triangle, we will apply the same rule to each of its vertices.
The original triangle has the vertices at (2, 3), (4, 3), and (5, 2). To reflect these vertices over the x-axis, we only need to change the sign of the y-coordinates.
The new coordinates will be:
(2, -3)
(4, -3)
(5, -2)
So, the new coordinates of the reflected triangle are (2, -3), (4, -3), and (5, -2).
To reflect a triangle over the x-axis, we need to change the sign of the y-coordinate of each vertex.
Given the original vertices of the triangle:
A = (2, 3)
B = (4, 3)
C = (5, 2)
To reflect over the x-axis, we change the sign of the y-coordinate for each vertex.
The new coordinates of the reflected image are:
A' = (2, -3)
B' = (4, -3)
C' = (5, -2)
Therefore, the new coordinates of the reflected image are:
A' = (2, -3)
B' = (4, -3)
C' = (5, -2)
