The shape of a heart is reflected across the x -axis. If the point at the bottom of the heart for the original figure is at (314,712) , what are the coordinates for the point at the bottom of the heart in the reflected image?

Answer 1

When a point is reflected across the x-axis, the sign of the y-coordinate changes.

In this case, if the original point is (314, 712), the y-coordinate of the reflected point will become negative.

Therefore, the coordinates for the point at the bottom of the heart in the reflected image will be (314, -712).
