Question

Which of the answer figure is correct mirror image of the problem figure with respect to X-X ?

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Hint:

The axis X-X is vertical, so the mirror image is the left-right reversal of the figure: every item on the left goes to the right and every hooked line turns the other way.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The mirror line X-X is a vertical line at the right of the figure, so the image is the problem figure flipped left to right (top stays top, bottom stays bottom).
Top: the circle (left) and square (right) swap sides, giving square on the left and circle on the right. Bottom: the square (left) and circle (right) swap, giving circle on the left and square on the right.
Sides: the left triangles (one pointing up, one down) move to the right, and the right pair (both down) move to the left, so the left side has two downward triangles and the right side has one upward and one downward triangle.
The four hooked lines of the pinwheel reverse their turning: the top hook now bends to the left, the left arm bends downward, the right arm bends upward and the bottom hook bends to the right.
Option (1) keeps the circle left and square right at the top; option (2) has the left arm hooked upward instead of downward; option (3) is the unflipped pinwheel. Only option (4) has every feature reversed correctly.
Answer: (4) the fourth figure
