Type your group's "TOP 2" sentences about reflections into a text box in this Padlet. For the "Subject", type your names. Then, where it says "Write something...", type your two sentences.

The coordinates flipped x and y, and or reversed their status (positive and negative).

The shape could reflect in different areas depending on where the line of reflection is.

A reflection is a mirror image of the original shape. The ordered pairs may change, either switching places (x & y), or turning negative/positive.

When reflected over the x-axis, the y-value of a ordered pair will be changed to the opposite sign. If a point is in the first or second quadrant when reflected (over the x-axis) the y-value will become negative and the opposite is true for the third and fourth quadrants.

The points are the same distance from the line of reflection on both sides. the x value turns negative when reflecting over y, and y value turns negative when reflecting over x.

When looking at the coordinates there are always different negative and positive sets depending on the starting point of the graph.

When Reflecting a shape it keeps its same length and values but the only thing that is different is the way it is rotated, you could have a triangle facing up and when rotating it on the y-axis it will be facing down, but it still keeps its same volume or area, etc.
The cordinates stay the same whenever reflecting a shape, the only thing that may change is the the number for example (2,0) and then reflecting it on the x you get (-2, 0)

The numbers of x and y coordinates switch to the opposite value in the pair. The area of the shape stays the same as does perimeter. points stay the same amount away from the line of y=x.

When you reflect over the x-axis the y-coordinate is reversed and vice versa, for example if the coordinate was (4,1), when you reflect over the x-axis it will be (4,-1). When reflected over the y=x line, the coordinates get flipped, for example if the coordinate is (5,2), when it is flipped it will be (2,5)

When a reflection occurs over the x axis, the y coordinate is "reversed" meaning that if it was positive previously, it would turn negative. The same thing happens whenever a reflection happens over the y axis only now it's the x coordinate that changes.

The point stayed the same while the y point changed into the opposite of what is was for example if was (1,5) it would change into (1, -5)
We also noticed that the distance from the reflecting line is the same for both shapes.

The coordinates of the shape you're reflecting will always change from positive to negative and from negative to positive. They will also always be the same amount of units away from the X/Y axis as it was before. If the shape is being reflected over the x-axis, after it's being reflected the y coordinate becomes the opposite of what it is (from positive to negative and from negative to positive).

Reflections are basically just a mirroring image of the normal shape but in a different quadrant. the shapes could reflect differently depending on the line of reflection
