10/7/20152.3 Reflections2 Topic/Objectives Reflection Identify and use reflections in a plane. Understand Line Symmetry Essential Question: How can you reflect over a line?
3
10/7/20152.3 Reflections3 Reflection A reflection in line m is a transformation that maps every point P in the plane to point P’ so the following properties are true: Line of Reflection m P P’ P and P’ are equidistant from line m.

10/7/20152.3 Reflections4 Reflections on the Coordinate Plane Graph the reflection of A(2, 3) in the x-axis. 3 3 A’(2, -3) A(2, 3) A’(2, -3) A Reflection in the x-axis has the mapping: (x, y) (x, -y)
5
10/7/20152.3 Reflections5 Reflections on the Coordinate Plane Graph the reflection of A(2, 3) in the y-axis. 22 A’(-2, 3) A(2, 3) A’(-2, 3) A Reflection in the y-axis has the mapping: (x, y) (-x, y)
6
10/7/20152.3 Reflections6 Reflections on the Coordinate Plane Graph the reflection of A(1, 4) in the line y = x. A’(4, 1) A(1, 4) A’(4, 1) A Reflection in the line y = x has the mapping: (x, y) (y, x)
7
10/7/20152.3 Reflections7 Reflection Mappings In the x-axis: (x, y) (x, -y) In the y-axis: (x, y) (-x, y) In y = x: (x, y) (y, x) We say: Reflect in the x-axis, reflect over the x-axis, reflect on the x-axis, reflect across the x-axis. They mean the same thing.
