What is flipping a figure over the axis of symmetry. Every point has a corresponding point in the new image on the opposite side of the axis of symmetry except when the point lies on the axis.?

Flipping a figure over the axis of symmetry involves creating a mirror image of the figure across that axis. Each point on the original figure corresponds to a point on the opposite side of the axis, maintaining an equal distance from the axis. Points that lie directly on the axis remain unchanged, as they are their own mirror images. This transformation results in a figure that is symmetrical with respect to the axis.


What is a definition of a reflection of a point P across the axis to the point P?

The reflection of a point ( P ) across an axis (such as the x-axis or y-axis) results in a new point ( P' ) that is equidistant from the axis but on the opposite side. For example, if ( P ) is at coordinates ( (x, y) ), its reflection across the x-axis would be ( P' ) at ( (x, -y) ). The distance between ( P ) and the axis remains the same, ensuring that the two points are symmetrical with respect to that axis.


What is equal to the length of the major axis of an ellipse?

The length of the major axis of an ellipse is equal to twice the length of the semi-major axis. If the semi-major axis is denoted as "a," then the major axis length is 2a. This axis is the longest diameter of the ellipse, stretching from one end of the ellipse to the other through the center.


What is symmmetry?

Symmetry is the exact correspondence of form and constituent configuration on opposite sides of a dividing line or plane or about a center or an axis.


What are the end points of a globe called?

The axis ends at the North and South Poles.
