A line segment has endpoints (0, 5) and (6, 5). After the line segment is reflected across the x-axis, how long will it be?(1 point)%0D%0AResponses%0D%0A%0D%0A6 units%0D%0A6 units%0D%0A%0D%0A11 units%0D%0A11 units%0D%0A%0D%0A 5 units%0D%0A 5 units%0D%0A%0D%0A1 unit%0D%0A1 unit%0D%0ASkip to navigation%0D%0AHighlight%0D%0A%0D%0Apage 15 of 15
When a point is reflected across the x-axis, its y-coordinate changes sign but the x-coordinate remains the same.
In this case, the y-coordinate of the first endpoint (0, 5) changes sign to (-5), so the new endpoint after reflecting across the x-axis is (0, -5).
The length of the line segment is still the same, regardless of the reflection. Therefore, the length of the line segment after reflection across the x-axis is still 6 units.
So the correct answer is 6 units.
