Question

look at this shape: image of a purple triangle on a grid which image shows a reflection? three grid images labeled a, b, c with triangles a b c

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection definition

A reflection (flip) is a transformation that creates a mirror image across a line (axis of reflection). The reflected shape should be a mirror copy, with corresponding points equidistant from the axis.

Step2: Analyze each option

• Option A: The triangle appears to be a mirror reflection (flip) of the original. Corresponding sides and angles are mirrored, matching the reflection property.
• Option B: This looks like a rotation (turn) rather than a reflection, as the orientation is rotated, not mirrored.
• Option C: This is a translation (slide) or the original shape, not a reflection (no mirroring).

Answer:

A
