Step 1
Given:
y=x2
The graph of this function is reflected about the x - axis
Step 2
The curve obtained by reflecting the graph of y=f(x) over the x - axis is y=f(x).
This is because, the reflection of the point (x,f(x)) about the x - axis is (x,-f(x))
Hence,
When y=x2 is reflected about the x - axis, the equation of the transformed graph if y=x2
