The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The line X-X is vertical and stands to the right of the figure, so the mirror image is obtained by reversing the figure from left to right: the tall vertical side moves to the left, the base stays at the bottom and the point of the large triangle moves to the lower right.
The curved lines must keep their curvature direction after reversal: the upper arc leaves the left vertical side, bulges upward and ends at the centre; the lower arc leaves the bottom-left corner and bulges upward towards the centre. The small arc beside the vertical line stays on the left of that line, and the little line segments near the base appear on the right of it.
Option 1 has all these features: the two arcs bulge the right way and the two short slanting lines at the lower right are present.
Option 2 lacks one of the short lines at the lower right, and in options 3 and 4 the upper arc bulges downward, which is not a mirror image of the original.
Therefore option 1 is the true mirror image.
Answer: (1) Option 1
