    				| 1. | The point (-5, 0) on reflection in a line is mapped as (5, 0) and the point (-2, -6) on reflection in the same line is mapped as (2, -6). (a) Name the line of reflection. (b) Write down the co-ordinates of the image of (5, -8) in the line obtained in (a). | 
| Answer» (a) We know that reflection in the line x = 0 is the reflection in the y-axis. It is given that: Point (-5, 0) on reflection in a line is mapped as (5, 0). Point (-2, -6) on reflection in the same line is mapped as (2, -6). Hence, the line of reflection is x = 0. (b) It is known that My (x, y) = (-x, y) Co-ordinates of the image of (5, -8) in the line x = 0 are (-5, -8). | |
