Question

Reflect the endpoint of a line segment (-5, 10) across the x axis. What is the result?

Answer 1

To reflect a point across the x-axis, you change the sign of the y-coordinate while keeping the x-coordinate the same.

For the point (-5, 10):

- The x-coordinate stays the same: -5
- The y-coordinate changes sign: 10 becomes -10

Thus, the reflection of the point (-5, 10) across the x-axis is (-5, -10).
