To reflect points across the x-axis, you negate the y-coordinate of each point while keeping the x-coordinate the same.
Let's apply this to the given points:
1. A(-2, 1) → A'(-2, -1)
2. B(0, 1) → B'(0, -1)
3. C(0, 3) → C'(0, -3)
4. D(-1, 4) → D'(-1, -4)
5. E(-2, 3) → E'(-2, -3)
So, the new points after reflecting across the x-axis are:
- A'(-2, -1)
- B'(0, -1)
- C'(0, -3)
- D'(-1, -4)
- E'(-2, -3)
