1. The problem is to find the rule for reflecting the point $(3,13)$ to $(-3,-13)$.
2. Reflection rules depend on the axis or line of reflection. Common reflections include:
- Reflection about the y-axis: $(x,y) \to (-x,y)$
- Reflection about the x-axis: $(x,y) \to (x,-y)$
- Reflection about the origin: $(x,y) \to (-x,-y)$
3. Check which rule applies to the given points:
- Original point: $(3,13)$
- Reflected point: $(-3,-13)$
4. Notice that both the $x$ and $y$ coordinates change sign, so the reflection is about the origin.
5. Therefore, the reflection rule is:
$$ (x,y) \to (-x,-y) $$
6. Applying this to $(3,13)$:
$$ (3,13) \to (-3,-13) $$
7. This matches the given reflected point, confirming the rule.
Final answer: The reflection rule is $ (x,y) \to (-x,-y) $ which is reflection about the origin.
