Question

Refer to the polygon in the diagram. Identify a line of reflection that flips the polygon onto itself. (1 point) Responses y=0 y equals 0 y=−r y equals negative r x=−m x equals negative m x=n

Answer 1

The coordinates are, X is, (n,0) Y is, (?,?) Z is (?,?) U is, (?,-k) V is, (-m,-r) W is, (-n,0)

Answer 2

To identify a line of reflection that flips a polygon onto itself, we typically look for lines that act as axes of symmetry for the shape. Without seeing the diagram, I can provide some guidance based on common lines of reflection for various shapes:

1. **y = 0 (the x-axis)**: This would reflect a shape vertically, flipping it upside down.
2. **y = -r or y = negative r**: This suggests a horizontal line below the x-axis; it might serve as a line of symmetry if the shape is symmetric about that line.
3. **x = -m or x = negative m**: This represents a vertical line; it could reflect a shape if the shape is symmetric about that line.
4. **x = n**: This is another vertical line; similarly, it could be a line of symmetry depending on the shape.

To determine which option is correct, consider the following:
- If the polygon is symmetric horizontally, consider **y = 0**.
- If the polygon is symmetric vertically, consider either **x = -m** or **x = n**.

If you can provide details about the polygon's shape or its symmetry, I could give a more specific answer. However, if no additional information is given, **y = 0 (the x-axis)** is a common line of reflection for many polygons.
