Reflections on the Coordinate Plane

Which axis is horizontal?

• X-axis

• Y-axis

• Neither

• Both

When plotting the point (5, -3), how many spaces do you move to the right from the origin?

• -3

• 7

• 5

• 3

What is the correct sequence for plotting a point on the coordinate plane?

• Neither value is plotted first

• Both values simultaneously

• X-value then Y-value

• Y-value then X-value

Reflecting a point over the x-axis changes which value?

• X-value

• Y-value

• Both values

• Neither value

If a point is reflected over the x-axis, and its original coordinates are (5, -3), what are the new coordinates?

• (-5, -3)

• (5, 3)

• (5, -3)

• (-5, 3)

After reflecting the point (-4, 6) over the x-axis, what becomes the y-value?

• 6

• -6

• 4

• -4

What happens to the x-value when a point is reflected over the y-axis?

• It remains unchanged

• It doubles

• It becomes its opposite

• It becomes zero

If a point (3, -2) is reflected over the y-axis, what is the x-value of the reflected point?

• 3

• -3

• 2

• -2

Which of the following points is on the negative side of both the x-axis and y-axis?

• (3, 2)

• (-5, -4)

• (-4, 6)

• (5, -3)

When reflecting a point over an axis, what is the general rule regarding the values?

• Both values change

• Both values stay the same

• The value corresponding to the axis of reflection stays the same

• The value corresponding to the axis of reflection changes
