Determine whether the statement is true or false.
The point ( -n, m) is symmetric to the point (n, m) with respect to the y-axis.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Symmetry with respect to the y-axis means that if we reflect a point across the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign but the y-coordinate stays the same.

So if we reflect point (n, m) across the y-axis, we get (-n, m). Therefore, the statement is true.
