Transcribed Image Text:**Question 7: Reflect Point C over the y-axis**
The image displays a coordinate plane with a triangle formed by three points labeled A, B, and C. The points are connected by lines to illustrate the shape of the triangle.
**Coordinates:**
- Point A is located at (4, 5).
- Point B is located at (-3, 5).
- Point C is located at (3, 2).
The graph includes grid lines marking the coordinate plane from -5 to 5 on both the x-axis and y-axis.
**Task:**
Reflect Point C, currently at (3, 2), over the y-axis.
**Choices:**
- a) (-3, 2)
- b) (3, 2)
- c) (-2, 3)
- d) (3, 0)
**Explanation:**
When reflecting a point over the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign while the y-coordinate remains the same. Thus, the reflection of Point C (3, 2) over the y-axis results in the point (-3, 2). Therefore, option a) (-3, 2) is the correct answer.
