Do you see that W is the opposite hand of A?

anonymous · Answer

yes, so that would elimate A?

mathmate · Answer

Good, yes.
In fact, it means that a reflection is involved, right?

anonymous · Answer

yes, my guess is b?

mathmate · Answer

Yes, b is correct.  But why not c?  Do you know how glide reflection works?

mathmate · Answer

Also, about which point should the rotation be carried out?
