Question

If Kite ABCD is reflected across the x-axis, what are the resulting coordinates of point A?
Responses
A (1, -3)(1, -3)
B (-3, 1)(-3, 1)
C (3, -1)(3, -1)
D (-3, -1)(-3, -1)
E (-1, -3)(-1, -3)

Answer 1

To determine the resulting coordinates of point A when Kite ABCD is reflected across the x-axis, we need to know the original coordinates of point A. The rule for reflecting a point across the x-axis is that the x-coordinate stays the same, while the y-coordinate changes sign.

In general, if the original coordinates of point A are \((x, y)\), the reflected coordinates will be \((x, -y)\).

Since the original coordinates of point A are not provided in your question, we cannot compute the exact reflected coordinates. However, if you provide the original coordinates of point A, I can help you find the reflected coordinates.

From the options provided (A, B, C, D, E), we can analyze them:
1. **(1, -3)** - The original point could have been (1, 3) before reflection.
2. **(-3, 1)** - The original point could have been (-3, -1) before reflection.
3. **(3, -1)** - The original point could have been (3, 1) before reflection.
4. **(-3, -1)** - The original point could have been (-3, 1) before reflection.
5. **(-1, -3)** - The original point could have been (-1, 3) before reflection.

If you provide the original coordinates for point A, I can guide you to the correct answer from the choices given.
