The line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of any point and its image.

Draw a line joining a point and its image and find its midpoint. Repeat for another pair of point and its image. The line joining these midpoints is the line of reflection.
The reflection of a shape is defined with respect to some specified line. None is specified. If one were specified, the reflection of an object would be the set of points such that the line was exactly half-way between each point in the original shape and its reflection.
Reflection of an object is the flip of that subject on a particular line, that is called line of reflection.
A line of reflection and a line of symmetry both show the reverse of an image.
The line of reflection in symmetry is the imaginary line that travels down the line of symmetry. For example, in a square, the line of reflection would be the line down the center of the square, and the line down the diagonal of the square.
