Consider a point (x,y) if the reflection is over x-axis, the x coordinate will remain same and the y co-ordinate will be the additive inverse of the original coordinate.
Therefore, the reflection over x- axis will make the point (x,-y).
It basically will change the side of point over the axis, that is if the point is below the x- axis after reflection it will be up the x- axis, and vice- versa.
The original point (5,6) is above the x-axis, after reflection over x- axis it is below the x-axis.
