The graph of the function f(x)=a^2 is shown on the accompanying set of the axes. On the same set of axes, sketch the reflection of f(x) in the y-axis.
State the coordinates of the points where the graphs intersect.

We can't see that "accompanying graph."

BUT...if you reflect a graph over the y-axis, every point on the original graph maps on to it's "mirror image" on the other side of the y-axis.

Try finding the mirror images of each point on the original graph to sketch the reflection.

What does the symbol a represent? Is the graph that you've been given a horizontal line?
