Sample Questions

1multiple choice
3 marks

Point T(5, 4) is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin and then reflected in the x-axis. What is the final image?

Show answer

(4, 5)

Step 1: Rotation 90° clockwise changes (x, y) to (y, -x). So (5, 4) becomes (4, -5). Step 2: Reflection in the x-axis changes the sign of y. So (4, -5) becomes (4, 5).

A point U(-7, 1) is reflected in the x-axis, then in the origin, and then in the y-axis. What is the final image?

Show answer

(-7, 1)

Step 1: Reflection in the x-axis gives (-7, -1). Step 2: Reflection in the origin gives (7, 1). Step 3: Reflection in the y-axis gives (-7, 1).

Point X(0, 8) is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin and then reflected in the origin. What is the final image?

Show answer

(-8, 0)

Step 1: Rotation 90° clockwise changes (x, y) to (y, -x). So (0, 8) becomes (8, 0). Step 2: Reflection in the origin changes both signs, so (8, 0) becomes (-8, 0).

4multiple choice

Point C(9, -4) is rotated 180° about the origin and then reflected in the y-axis. What is the final image?

Show answer

(9, 4)

Step 1: Rotation 180° about the origin gives (-9, 4). Step 2: Reflection in the y-axis changes the sign of x, so (-9, 4) becomes (9, 4).
