This Regents Prep site contains numerous problems concerning line reflections. Each multiple choice problem contains a short explanation.
Illustrative Mathematics
Illustrative Mathematics: 8.g Reflecting Reflections
In this task, 8th graders are shown a picture of a triangle on a coordinate grid and are asked to draw and label reflections and explain a transformation. Aligns with 8.G.A.3.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Reflections Over the Axes
It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are reflected over the x-axis or the y-axis. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Reflecting a Triangle in the Coordinate Plane
In this activity, students use the drawing and measurement tools of Cabri Jr. to blend coordinate geometry with drawing tools. They visualize symmetry and reflect a point across the y-axis.

Texas Gateway: Graphing Dilations, Reflections, and Translations
Given a coordinate plane, the student will graph dilations, reflections, and translations, and use those graphs to solve problems.
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Determine Reflections (Advanced)
Given two figures on the coordinate plane, draw the line of reflection that takes one figure to another.
CK-12 Foundation
Ck 12: Geometry: Reflections
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This concept teaches students about reflections and how to find the coordinates of a reflected figure.
