The formal term for the line that an object is reflected across is the "line of reflection." This line serves as the axis that creates a mirror image of the object on the opposite side. In geometric terms, each point on the object is mapped to a corresponding point on the reflected image, equidistant from the line of reflection.
When the point (-3, 2) is reflected across the x-axis, the y-coordinate changes sign while the x-coordinate remains the same. Thus, the resulting image of the point after the reflection is (-3, -2).
To find the image of the point (-7, 1) reflected across the y-axis, you need to change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate the same. Therefore, the x-coordinate of -7 becomes 7, resulting in the reflected point being (7, 1).
Not normally but there will be a change in the coodinates of the reflected image on the Cartesian plane
It has 2 lines of symmetry
False
The property is Reflection Symmetry, Line Symmetry or Mirror Symmetry
You do a flip in geometrey when you do transformations. Flip is a transformation in which a plane figure is flipped or reflected across a line, creating a mirror image of the original figure.
It still has the same weight. Even turned or reflected the weight/mass remains the same.
They are (4, -6).

A reflected image is a mirror image of the original object. It appears to be flipped horizontally along a mirror line. All angles in the reflected image are equal to the corresponding angles in the original object.
image distance is the distance from the point of incidence on the mirror, the where the image is reflected to.object distance is the distance from the actual object being reflected to the point of incidence on the mirror where it's reflected as an image.
It has 2 lines of symmetry
A figure that has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry is a figure that can be rotated by a certain angle and still look the same, but cannot be reflected across a line to create a mirror image of itself. An example of such a figure is a regular pentagon, which has rotational symmetry of 72 degrees but does not have any lines of symmetry. This means that if you rotate a regular pentagon by 72 degrees, it will look the same, but you cannot reflect it across any line to create a mirror image.
