Question

1. explain why figure b is not the image of figure a after a reflection using line l

Explanation:

In a reflection, corresponding points of the pre - image and image are equidistant from the line of reflection. For Figure A and B with line \(l\) as the supposed line of reflection, the distances of corresponding points on Figure A and Figure B to line \(l\) are not equal. Also, the orientation of some parts of the figures relative to the line of reflection is incorrect for a reflection transformation.

Answer:

The distances of corresponding points of Figure A and Figure B to line \(l\) are not equal and the orientation of parts of the figures relative to line \(l\) is wrong for a reflection.
