The point (−11, 2) is reflected across the x - and y -axes. In what quadrant is the reflected point located?

1 answer

When a point is reflected across the x-axis, the y-coordinate changes sign, and when it is reflected across the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign.

Reflecting the point (−11, 2) across the x-axis gives us the point (−11, -2). Reflecting this point across the y-axis gives us the point (11, -2).

The reflected point (11, -2) is located in the fourth quadrant.
