Example Question - line y=x

Reflection Over Line y = x

In this case, you want to find the image of the point (0, -8) after a reflection over the line y = x. When reflecting a point over the line y = x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the original point are swapped. The point's new location would have its coordinates reversed; that is, the x-coordinate becomes the y-coordinate, and the y-coordinate becomes the x-coordinate. Therefore, the image of the point (0, -8) after the reflection would be at (-8, 0).
