Note: Award A1 for evidence of approximately correct reflection in y = x with correct curvature.

(y = x does not need to be explicitly seen)

Only if this mark is awarded, award marks as follows:

A1 for both correct invariant points in circles,

A1 for the three other points in circles,

A1 for correct domain.
