Max is trying to prove to his friend that two reflections, one across the x-axis and another across the y-axis, will not result in a reflection across the line y = x for a pre-image in quadrant ii. his friend josiah is trying to prove that a reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis will result in a reflection across the line y = x for a pre-image in quadrant ii. which student is correct, and which statements below will him prove his conjecture? check all that apply.
max is correct.
josiah is correct.
if one reflects a figure across the x-axis from quadrant ii, the image will end up in quadrant iii.
if one reflects a figure across the y-axis from quadrant iii, the image will end up in quadrant iv.
a figure that is reflected from quadrant ii to quadrant iv will be reflected across the line y = x.
if one reflects a figure across the x-axis, the points of the image can be found using the pattern (x, y) - (x, –y).
if one reflects a figure across the y-axis, the points of the image can be found using the pattern (x, y) - (–x, y).
taking the result from the first reflection (x, –y) and applying the second mapping rule will result in (–x, –y), not (y, x), which reflecting across the line y=x should give.
