Question

The coordinates of a point and its
image are given below. What is the line
of reflection?
(-1,-4) – (-4, -1)

Answers

  1. Answer:
    y = x
    Explanation:
    Let A(-1,-4) and B(-4,-1).
    The slope of AB is -1, and the midpoint of AB is (-2.5, -2.5).
    The perpendicular bisector of AB thus has a slope of 1 and passes through (-2.5, -2.5).
    The perpendicular bisector is the line of reflection, which has equation y = x.
