Exercise 5 Page 556

Is the image directly above/below or to the left/right of it's preimage?

Neither

Practice makes perfect

A figure that is reflected in the x-axis would have it's image directly below or above it on the opposite side of that axis. By the same token, a figure reflected in the y-axis, would have an image to the left or right of it on the opposite side of that axis. This means the two figures cannot be reflection in the x-axis or y-axis. Thus, the answer is neither.
