Question

consider the incomplete paragraph proof. given: p is a point on the perpendicular bisector, l, of mn. prove: pm = pn. because of the unique line postulate, we can draw unique line segment pm. using the definition of reflection, pm can be reflected over line l. by the definition of reflection, point p is the image of itself and point n is the image of _______. because reflections preserve length, pm = pn. point m point q segment pm segment qm

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In a reflection over the perpendicular bisector of a line - segment, the two endpoints of the line - segment are images of each other. Here, since line \(l\) is the perpendicular bisector of \(\overline{MN}\), when reflecting over \(l\), point \(N\) is the image of point \(M\).

Answer:

A. point M
