hey :
i am working on simple engineering application but i have some problem
i want to draw X-Y axis Then put any point on it .
Then i want to translate this point ∆x=5 , ∆y=12
After that i want to rotate it by angle (∂) degree
then i want to reflect it around X-axis
can any one help me ?
That may sound simple, but it isn't. Drawing objects such as lines, elipses etc can be very complicated depending on the operating system and compiler.

Well this is the C++ forum. I'm sure you can do all of that in C++, though I have no idea how so I'm of no help if you go the C++ route. However, Java has the Swing library, which has a lot of these function written for you if you want to go that route.

You can do it through C++ (what can't you do in C++???)
There's many different ways, e.g. use graphics functions in window classes such as Qt, etc. or if using windows use the GDI WIN32 APIs directly onto the screen/window/memory bitmap/etc.
If you use Qt or some other windows classes, the code should be portable across platforms.
For the windows GDI method, check out the following functions:
GetDC, MoveToEx, LineTo, and related functions.
As for the rest of your question, translation dx = 5, dy = 12 - isn't that just adding these values to the original coordinates?
rotation by angle (assuming (0,0) is rotation origin) - you can use matrix multiplication, or simple trigonometry: e.g.
convert (x,y)-->(mag, ang)
ang += rotation_angle
convert(mag,ang)-->(x,y)
Reflecting about x axis - just make y coordinate negative
OK, so most of that was not c++ specific...
So Can You help me to do that ?
No, sorry, its outside my expertise.
