Question

look at this shape: image of a purple polygon on a grid which image shows a reflection? images of three purple polygons labeled a, b, c on grids, with options a, b, c below

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection definition

A reflection (mirror image) of a shape should be a flip over a line, so corresponding points are equidistant from the line of reflection, and the shape is mirrored.

Step2: Analyze each option

• Option A: The shape looks like a translation or rotation, not a mirror flip of the original.
• Option B: This seems like a translation (moved) rather than a reflection.
• Option C: The shape is a mirror flip of the original (e.g., the slanted side is mirrored, and the right angle position is flipped), matching the reflection property.

Answer:

C
