                A reflection is like a mirror image. The figure does not change
                in size on being reflected.

                In the adjoining figure, image P has been flipped over about
                the line to make image Q. Here, image Q is the reflection of
                image P.                                                                        P                      Q

                Here are some more examples of reflections.

                example. Kavita visited the hospital where she saw an ambulance. She was confused
                and surprised. Why is ‘AMBULANCE’ written as                                AMBULANCE  ? Can you think and tell
                why?

                Solution. The word ‘AMBULANCE’ is written in reverse on the front of an ambulance
                so that drivers ahead can read the word correctly in their rear view mirrors.

                            Exercise 8B

                    1.  Put a ( ) on the figures that are reflections of each other.
                        a.                             b.                              c.

                        d.                             e.                              f.
