MATHS - Geometry - Transformations Reflections

This video tutorial explains the concept of reflections in mathematics, focusing on the use of mirror lines, also known as axes of reflection. It covers how to reflect shapes by counting squares and ensuring that reflections are perpendicular to the mirror line. The tutorial also addresses reflecting shapes with diagonal mirror lines and provides tips for visualizing perpendicularity. Additionally, it discusses how to handle overlapping shapes and includes practice questions to reinforce learning. The key rules for reflections are maintaining perpendicularity to the mirror line and ensuring equal distance from it.

What happens to the reflected point if the original point is 3 squares away from the mirror line?

What is a key characteristic of reflections in relation to the mirror line?
