Question
The points P (4, 1) and Q (–2, 4) are reflected in line y = 3. Find the co-ordinates of P’, the image of P and Q’, the image of Q.
Solution
Co-ordinates of P and Q are (4, 1) and (–2, 4) respectively.
∴ The co-ordinates of image of P which is P' are (4, 5) reflection in the line y = 3 and co-ordinates of image of Q when is Q' are (–2, 2) reflection is the line y = 3 as shown in the graph.
