To find the coordinates of point C, we need to find the reflection point C' across the x-axis. Since the reflection point C' is (2, -2), this means that the y-coordinate of point C' is the negative of the y-coordinate of point C. Therefore, the y-coordinate of point C is -(-2), which is 2. Since C' is the reflection of C across the x-axis, the x-coordinate of point C remains the same. Therefore, the coordinates of point C are (2, 2).
