(i) Write the mirror image of the point
(2, 5) in the x-axis.
(ii) Write the mirror image of the point
(3, 6) in the y-axis.
(iii) A point (a, b) lies in quadrant II. In which quadrant does (b, a) lie?
(i) The mirror image of the point (2, 5) in the x-axis is (2, -5)
(ii) The mirror image of the point (3, 6) in the y-axis is (-3, 6)
(iii) According to question,
Point (a, b) lies in the second quadrant so a must be a negative number and b must be a positive number
∴ Point (b, a) lies in the fourth quadrant
