To solve this question, we need to reflect the kite ABCD across the x-axis and find the new coordinates of point A.

1. From the image, point **A** is located at coordinates (-1, -3).

2. When reflecting a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate stays the same, but the y-coordinate changes sign (flips). So the reflection of a point \((x, y)\) across the x-axis is \((x, -y)\).

3. Applying this to point A, \((-1, -3)\) becomes \((-1, 3)\).

Thus, the new coordinates of point A after reflection across the x-axis are \((-1, 3)\).

The correct answer is option **E: (-1, 3)**.

2. What transformation reflects points across the y-axis?
3. How do you determine the reflection of a point across the origin?
4. How would the kite look if reflected across the y-axis instead?
5. What would be the new coordinates of point D after reflecting across the x-axis?

**Tip:** To reflect a point across the x-axis, remember to flip the sign of the y-coordinate, while the x-coordinate remains unchanged.

If Kite ABCD is reflected across the x-axis, what are the resulting coordinates of point A?
