An asymmetric planar motif situated in the coordinate plane has vertices at (2, 3), (4, 3), and (2, 6). What are the coordinates of its reflection across the vertical line x = 0 (the y-axis)?
Options:
(A) (-2, 3), (-4, 3), and (-2, 6)
(B) (2, -3), (4, -3), and (2, -6)
(C) (-2, -3), (-4, -3), and (-2, -6)
(D) (3, 2), (3, 4), and (6, 2)
Answer Key:
A
Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation
Reflection of a point (x, y) across the vertical line x = 0 transforms coordinates to (-x, y). Thus, (2, 3) becomes (-2, 3), (4, 3) becomes (-4, 3), and (2, 6) becomes (-2, 6).
