I don't know what a line of reflection is so an explanation would be nice too :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A line of reflection means that it takes a shape and "flips" it over that line. It looks like this:
|dw:1338266179454:dw|

Another example:
|dw:1338266240474:dw|

So what does that make the line of reflection o,0?

Try to picture a line for this one that you could flip the shape over and get it to where it ends up.

y = 2?

|dw:1338266690522:dw|
I drew in the original shape, and I drew in the line y=2, like you suggested. What happens if I reflect over that line? Do I get the the second place?

Ohh so x=1

Would that do it?
