if point p(6,9) is reflected across the line y=2 what are the coordinates of its reflection image?
The problem is that what does y=2 mean, like we dont just flip it over the y axis, what does the 2 mean?
Since (6,9) is 7 units above y=2, you want to reflect it so that the new point is 7 units below y=2
That means that the new point is (6,-5)
lol Homie thanks for that cus i was bout to use those on my test
I am vengeance's answers are different from everyone else's. Don't go off of letters alone
P'' (–6, 5)
I am vengeance is that for the unit 4 lesson 10 geometry test in connexus
So anyone got the real ones?
Describe the Image of D first reflected across line l, them across line m
In the given problem, the equation y=2 represents a horizontal line at y=2 on the coordinate plane. When we reflect a point across a line, we create a new point that is equidistant from the line as the original point.
To find the reflection of point P(6,9) across the line y=2, we can follow these steps:
1. Determine the distance between the original point P and the reflection image.
- Since the line y=2 is horizontal, the distance between P and the line is the vertical distance between the y-coordinates of the two points.
In this case, the original point P(6,9) has a y-coordinate of 9, and the line y=2 has a y-coordinate of 2. Therefore, the vertical distance is |9 - 2| = 7 units.
2. Create a new point by subtracting the vertical distance from the y-coordinate of point P.
- Since we are reflecting across a horizontal line, we only need to change the y-coordinate of the original point.
Subtracting the vertical distance of 7 units from the y-coordinate of P(6,9), we get the new y-coordinate of the reflection image: 9 - 7 = 2.
3. The x-coordinate of the reflection image remains the same as the x-coordinate of the original point.
- When reflecting across a horizontal line, the x-coordinate does not change.
Therefore, the coordinates of the reflection image of point P(6,9) across the line y=2 are (6, 2).
