Challenge 1 Hard

Reflect the point F(6, -4) across the line y = x and explain the outcome. Why is the resulting point significant in symmetry?

💡 Hint: Swap coordinates and observe if it shows symmetry.

Challenge 2 Hard

A rectangle has corners at (2, 3), (2, 5), (5, 5), and (5, 3). What would its new corners be after reflecting across y = x? What can you deduce about the rectangle's position?

💡 Hint: Remember to swap each vertex's coordinates!
