The image of the point $$P(3$$, $$5)$$ with respect to the line y $$=$$ x is the point Q and the image of Q with respect to the line y $$=$$ $$0$$ is the point $$R(a$$, $$b)$$, then (a$$, $$b)

Question

Infinity Learn · Accepted Answer

Let (x1$$, $$y1) be the image of the point $$P(3$$, $$5)$$ with respect to the line y $$=$$ x. Then, $$x1$$ $$=$$ $$5$$, $$y1$$ $$=$$ $$3$$.∴             Q $$=$$ (5$$, $$3)Since$$ the image of the point $$Q(5$$, $$3) w.r.t. the line y $$=$$ $$0$$ is (a$$, $$b).∴                a $$=$$ $$5$$ and b $$=$$ –$$3$$∴               (a$$, $$b) $$=$$ (5$$, –$$3)

The image of the point P(3, 5) with respect to the line y = x is the point Q and the image of Q with respect to the line y = 0 is the point R(a, b), then (a, b)
