Math Problem Statement

Nyatakan koordinat imej bagi pantulan y = 2

Solution

The question asks for the coordinates of the reflection of point AA across the line y=2y = 2. Let's break this down:

  1. The given point AA has coordinates (2,3)(2, -3).
  2. The line of reflection is y=2y = 2, which is horizontal.

Steps to Reflect:

To reflect a point across a horizontal line, you need to calculate the vertical distance from the point to the line and then place the reflection at the same distance on the opposite side.

  • The vertical distance from point A(2,3)A(2, -3) to the line y=2y = 2 is: 2(3)=5|2 - (-3)| = 5

  • So, the reflection will be 5 units above the line y=2y = 2. This places the new point at: y=2+5=7y = 2 + 5 = 7

Thus, the coordinates of the reflection are (2,7)(2, 7).

Answer:

The reflected coordinates of point AA across the line y=2y = 2 are (2,7)(2, 7).

Do you need more details on the reflection process or have any other questions?

Here are 5 related questions to explore further:

  1. How would you reflect a point across a vertical line like x=1x = 1?
  2. What are the coordinates of a point reflected over the origin?
  3. How would the reflection change if the line of reflection were y=2y = -2?
  4. Can you describe the reflection of a point across an arbitrary line y=mx+cy = mx + c?
  5. How would you compute the reflection of multiple points across the same line?

Tip: For any reflection, always calculate the distance between the point and the line of reflection and then mirror that distance on the other side!
