Similarly, reflection of the point (-2, 3) in the line y = -4 is (-2, 2 x (-4) – 3), i.e., (-2, -11)<br />
<strong>and</strong> reflection of the point (1, -1) in the line y= -3 is (1, 2 x (-3) – (-1)), i.e., (1, -5)<br />
Example10: Find the reflection of<br />
C(7, -4) in the<br />
ABC formed by the vertices A(5,2), B(4, 7) <strong>and</strong><br />
(i)<br />
(ii)<br />
(iii)<br />
x-axis,<br />
y-axis,<br />
Show that reflected triangle obtained in each case is congruent to the original<br />
triangle.<br />
Solution:<br />
(i)<br />
Reflection in x-axis<br />
A(5, 2) A‟(5, -2)<br />
B(4, 7) B‟(4, -7)<br />
C(7, -4) C‟(7, 4)<br />
A‟ B‟ C‟ is the reflection of ABC in x-axis<br />
(ii)<br />
Reflection in y-axis<br />
A(5, 2) A”(-5, 2)<br />
B(4, 7) B”(-4, 7)<br />
C(7, -4) C”(-7, -4)<br />
A” B” C” is the reflection of ABC in y-axis<br />
(iii) Here AB = =<br />
A‟ B‟ = =<br />
