Properties of Reflection
The line over which a preimage is reflected is called the line of reflection or the “mirror line.”
Each point of the preimage will beequidistant to the line of reflection witheach corresponding point of the image.

Properties of Reflection
If (x,y) is reflected in the y-axis, its image is (–x,y)
If (x,y) is reflected in the x-axis, its image is (x,–y)
If (x,y) is reflected in y = x, its image is (y, x)
