Given:
The coordinates of quadrilateral PQRS is:
P(-5, -2) , Q(-2,-2), R(-4, -6) and S(-7, -6)
Required: The coordinate of P' after a reflection over the x-axis
The rule for reflection of the x-axis is:
[tex](x,\text{ y) }\to\text{ (x, -y)}[/tex]
If point P is reflected over the x-axis, the transformation would be:
[tex](-5,\text{ -2) }\to\text{ (-5, 2)}[/tex]
Hence, the coordinate of P' would be (-5, 2)
Answer: Option A
