Question

Point TT is located at left bracket, 1, comma, 4, right bracket(1,4) on the coordinate plane. Point TT is reflected over the xx-axis to create point T, primeT
′
. Point T, primeT
′
is then reflected over the yy-axis to create point T, start superscript, prime, prime, end superscriptT
′′
. What ordered pair describes the location of T, start superscript, prime, prime, end superscript, question markT
′′
?

Answer 1

The location of T′ is (1,-4).

To find the location of T′′, we need to reflect T′ over the y-axis. When a point is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign and the y-coordinate stays the same.

Therefore, the location of T′′ is (-1, -4).
