Question

look at this shape: image of a purple trapezoid on a grid which image shows a reflection? images labeled a, b, c of purple shapes on grids a b c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection definition

A reflection (flip) is a transformation that creates a mirror image across a line, so the shape should be a mirror reverse of the original.

Step2: Analyze each option

• Option A: The shape's orientation doesn't match a mirror reflection (the slant side direction is same as original, not reversed).
• Option B: The shape is rotated, not reflected (angle of the slant side is changed, not mirrored).
• Option C: The shape is a mirror image of the original (the slant side is reversed, like flipping over a vertical or horizontal line to get the mirror effect).

Answer:

C
