Question
Find the point that is symmetric to the given point with respect to the $x$ -axis, the $y$ -axis, and the origin.$$(8,-3)$$
Step 1
To find the point symmetric to this point with respect to the $x$-axis, we keep the $x$-coordinate the same and change the sign of the $y$-coordinate. So, the point symmetric to $(8,-3)$ with respect to the $x$-axis is $(8,3)$. Show more…
