What are some shapes that look exactly the same when seen as a reflection in a mirror?

Everything that is seen as a plane mirror reflection is left/right reversed. This reversal might not be as apparent, with some shapes. A sphere for example, might require very close scrutiny to see that its reflection is left/right reversed, but it is always so. The same reasoning may be applied to any object with left/right symmetry.

What are the symmetrical shapes?
they are shapes that are the same on the other side e.g a rectangle ....if you put a mirror on the shape if you look in the mirror it will look the same
What are some real life examples of reflection?
Look in a mirror for an example of a reflection. Lift your right hand, and watch your left hand lift in the mirror, or so it appears!In geometry, reflection is a mirror image of a shape, etc.For example: the triangle b is the reflection of triangle a.▲ a▼ b
How do you find line symmetry?
Look at a shape and see if you can see that two halves mirror each other. To check, get a mirror and put it along this line. If the shape still looks the same using the mirror you have a line of symmetry. You can also trace half of the shape, turn the tracing paper over, put it on the other half of the shape and check it is the same. Yes another way to do it is think REFLECTION. If they are exactly the same, you have a line of symmetry!
What is the moving of a figure by a translation rotation or reflection?
translation:is just a slide to a directionrotation:is just rotation going by degrees 90,180,270,360reflection:its like when you look in the mirror it is just a flip
What angle does a light ray reflect off a mirror?
the same angle with which it (the incident ray) hits the mirror surface. this physical law is known by the formula α =β.there´s a simple way to prove it: look into a (palin) mirror and ask someone else to look into the same mirror - preferrably from another distance. as long as you can see their reflection they should be able yo see yours and vice versa.
Do you look 4 times better when you look in the mirror?
No. You look exactly as you are when you look in the mirror. The mirror is a reflection on how you look. You do not look better or worse than when you look in a mirror. A mirror is a flat surface, and you have curves, so the mirror will not reflect your curves, but, unless it's a "fun house" mirror which is designed to distort how you look, almost all ordinary mirrors reflect exactly how you look. No better, and no worse.

reflection
Can we see our reflection in mirror?
Yes, have a look and see
Why do you see your reflection when you look in a mirror and not when you look at a book?
The image is reflected from a reflective object, in this case [your mirror], as a Book is not a mirror, it is not reflected.
When does selective reflection happen?
it happens when you chose to look in the mirror
Give example of mirror?
You look in it and hay presto, you have a reflection.
Why is there right left inversions when you look into mirror?
It is due to the reflection
