Answer
(i) When a point is reflected in y-axis, the sign of its x-coordinate (abscissa) changes.
Reflection of (9, 10) in y-axis = (-9, 10).
(ii) When a point is reflected in y-axis, the sign of its x-coordinate (abscissa) changes.
Reflection of (9, 0) in y-axis = (-9, 0).
(iii) When a point is reflected in y-axis, the sign of its x-coordinate (abscissa) changes.
Reflection of (0, 9) in y-axis = (0, 9).
