Intersecting Lines y equals x and y equals negative x
Graph of y = x and y = -x
Overview
A brief animation that draws the Cartesian coordinate system, plots the line highlighting the origin , and then adds the line . The viewer sees how the two lines intersect at the origin and are symmetric about the xβaxis.
Phases
| # | Phase Name | Duration | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Intro | ~2s | Title fades in at the top; axes appear. |
| 2 | Plot | ~4s | The line is drawn from left to right; a small dot appears at the origin with a label ββ. |
| 3 | Plot | ~4s | The line is drawn, mirroring the first line; the origin dot remains highlighted. |
| 4 | Outro | ~2s | Both lines stay on screen while the title fades out; a brief caption βSymmetric lines through the originβ appears at the bottom. |

Notes
- All drawing actions use smooth linear growth (Create) to keep the animation fluid.
- The origin dot and its label should stay visible throughout the whole scene.
- No additional text is shown except the title and final caption.
- The entire scene fits within a single
Sceneclass.

Description
The animation draws a Cartesian coordinate system, then draws the line y equals x from left to right, highlights the origin with a dot and label, then draws the line y equals negative x, showing symmetry about the x axis. The title appears at the top and fades out, and a caption appears at the bottom stating the lines are symmetric through the origin.
