Question
Point A (2, -4) is reflected in origin as A’. Point B (- 3, 2) is reflected on X-axis as B’.
(i) Write the co-ordinates of A’.
(ii) Write the co-ordinates of B’.
(iii) Calculate the distance A’B’.
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place, (do not consult tables).

Answer


(i) A' → (-2, 4).
(ii) B' → (-3, -2).
(iii) Distance A'B'
$=\sqrt{(-3+2)^2+(-2-4)^2}$
$=\sqrt{1+36}$
$=\sqrt{37}$
$=6.1$
