(i) Find the co-ordinates of P.

(ii) Find the co-ordinates of the image of P under reflection in the y-axis.

Solution 8

(i) Since, Mx (-4, -5) = (-4, 5)

Question 10

The point (a, b) is first reflected in the origin and then reflected in the y-axis to P'. If P' has co-ordinates (4, 6); evaluate a and b.

Solution 10

MO (a, b) = (-a, -b)

My (-a, -b) = (a, -b)

Thus, we get the co-ordinates of the point P' as (a, -b). It is given that the 

co-ordinates of P' are (4, 6).

On comparing the two points, we get,

a = 4 and b = -6

Question 11

The point P (x, y) is first reflected in the x-axis and reflected in the origin to P'. If P' has co-ordinates (-8, 5); evaluate x and y.

Solution 11

Mx (x, y) = (x, -y)

MO (x, -y) = (-x, y)

Thus, we get the co-ordinates of the point P' as (-x, y). It is given that the

 co-ordinates of P' are (-8, 5).

On comparing the two points, we get,

x = 8 and y = 5

Question 12

The point A (-3, 2) is reflected in the x-axis to the point A'. Point A' is then reflected in the origin to point A''.

(i) Write down the co-ordinates of A''.

(ii) Write down a single transformation that maps A onto A''.

Solution 12

(i) The reflection in x-axis is given by Mx (x, y) = (x, -y).

A' = reflection of A (-3, 2) in the x- axis = (-3, -2).

The reflection in origin is given by MO (x, y) = (-x, -y).

A'' = reflection of A' (-3, -2) in the origin = (3, 2)

(ii) The reflection in y-axis is given by My (x, y) = (-x, y).

The reflection of A (-3, 2) in y-axis is (3, 2).

Thus, the required single transformation is the reflection of A in the y-axis to the point A''.

Question 13

The point A (4, 6) is first reflected in the origin to point A'. Point A' is then reflected in the y-axis to the point A''.

(i) Write down the co-ordinates of A''.

(ii) Write down a single transformation that maps A onto A''.

Solution 13

(i) The reflection in origin is given by MO (x, y) = (-x, -y).

A' = reflection of A (4, 6) in the origin = (-4, -6)

The reflection in y-axis is given by My (x, y) = (-x, y).

A'' = reflection of A' (-4, -6) in the y-axis = (4, -6)

(ii) The reflection in x-axis is given by Mx (x, y) = (x, -y).

The reflection of A (4, 6) in x-axis is (4, -6).

Thus, the required single transformation is the reflection of A in the x-axis to the point A''.

Question 14

The triangle ABC, where A is (2, 6), B is (-3, 5) and C is (4, 7), is reflected in the y-axis to triangle A'B'C'. Triangle A'B'C' is then reflected in the origin to triangle A''B''C''.

(i) Write down the co-ordinates of A'', B'' and C''.

(ii) Write down a single transformation that maps triangle ABC onto triangle A''B''C''.

Solution 14

(i) Reflection in y-axis is given by My (x, y) = (-x, y)

A' = Reflection of A (2, 6) in y-axis = (-2, 6)

Similarly, B' = (3, 5) and C' = (-4, 7)

Reflection in origin is given by MO (x, y) = (-x, -y)

A'' = Reflection of A' (-2, 6) in origin = (2, -6)

Similarly, B'' = (-3, -5) and C'' = (4, -7)

(ii) A single transformation which maps triangle ABC to triangle A''B''C'' is

 reflection in x-axis.

Question 15

P and Q have co-ordinates (-2, 3) and (5, 4) respectively. Reflect P in the x-axis to P' and Q in the y-axis to Q'. State the co-ordinates of P' and Q'.

Solution 15

Reflection in x-axis is given by Mx (x, y) = (x, -y)

P' = Reflection of P(-2, 3) in x-axis = (-2, -3)

Reflection in y-axis is given by My (x, y) = (-x, y)

Q' = Reflection of Q(5, 4) in y-axis = (-5, 4)

Thus, the co-ordinates of points P' and Q' are (-2, -3) and (-5, 4) respectively.

Question 16

On a graph paper, plot the triangle ABC, whose vertices are at points A (3, 1), B (5, 0) and C (7, 4).

On the same diagram, draw the image of the triangle ABC under reflection in the origin O (0, 0).

Solution 16

The graph shows triangle ABC and triangle A'B'C' which is obtained when ABC is 

reflected in the origin.

Question 17

Point A (4, -1) is reflected as A' in the y-axis. Point B on reflection in the x-axis is mapped as B' (-2, 5). Write down the co-ordinates of A' and B.

Solution 17

Reflection in y-axis is given by My (x, y) = (-x, y)

A' = Reflection of A(4, -1) in y-axis = (-4, -1)

Reflection in x-axis is given by Mx (x, y) = (x, -y)

B' = Reflection of B in x-axis = (-2, 5)

Thus, B = (-2, -5)

Question 18

The point (-5, 0) on reflection in a line is mapped as (5, 0) and the point (-2, -6) on reflection in the same line is mapped as (2, -6).

(a) Name the line of reflection.

(b) Write down the co-ordinates of the image of (5, -8) in the line obtained in (a).

Solution 18

(a) We know that reflection in the line x = 0 is the reflection in the y-axis.

It is given that:

Point (-5, 0) on reflection in a line is mapped as (5, 0).

Point (-2, -6) on reflection in the same line is mapped as (2, -6).

 

Hence, the line of reflection is x = 0.

 

(b) It is known that My (x, y) = (-x, y)

Co-ordinates of the image of (5, -8) in the line x = 0 are (-5, -8).
