Question

look at the floor - plan. abdul sees the image of a clock in the mirror on the door.
a. trace the diagram. where is the line of reflection? explain.
b. where is the clock located? explain.
c. find where abduls image is located relative to the line of reflection. can abdul see himself in the mirror? explain.
which of the following correctly places the line of reflection?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection property

In a reflection, the line of reflection is the perpendicular - bisector of the line segment joining an object and its image.

Step2: Analyze the positions

The line of reflection should be such that the image of the clock is symmetric to the actual clock with respect to it. Looking at the options, the line of reflection should be a vertical line passing through the middle of the door (assuming the mirror is on the door). This is because the image of the clock appears on the other side of the door - like structure.

Step3: Evaluate options

Option A has a horizontal line of reflection which is incorrect as the object and image are not symmetric about a horizontal line. Option B has a diagonal line which is also incorrect as the symmetry is not diagonal. Option C has a line passing through the middle of the door vertically which is correct as it makes the clock and its image symmetric. Option D has a wrong - positioned line.

Answer:

C.
