It means that if you flip the figure over, you get the same figure again.
No figure is changed by a translation so the last part of the question is irrelevant. Any figure with a horizontal line of symmetry will not be changed by a horizontal reflection.
Reflection in geometry is not simply a flip; rather, it involves flipping a figure over a line (the line of reflection) to create a mirror image. This process changes the orientation of the figure while preserving its shape and size. Although the result may appear as a flip, it is specifically characterized by the symmetry produced around the line of reflection.
symmetry? lines of symmetry? something of the sort, i believe..why am i answering this? someone hit me
Point symmetry is a type of symmetry where a figure is identical to its reflection through a central point, known as the center of symmetry. In point symmetry, for every point in the figure, there exists another point at an equal distance from the center but in the opposite direction. This means that if you were to draw a line from one point to the center and extend it an equal distance on the other side, you would find a corresponding point of the figure. Common examples include the graph of a function that is odd or geometric shapes like a star.
A figure has rotational symmetry if you can turn it about a figure.
square
A line of symmetry is a reflection.
A figure has linear symmetry when after reflection, the image looks exactly the same as the original
The property is Reflection Symmetry, Line Symmetry or Mirror Symmetry

Oh, dude, line symmetry is when you can fold a shape in half and both sides match up perfectly, like a beautiful butterfly. Point symmetry is basically when a shape looks the same even after you give it a little spin, like a merry-go-round that never gets dizzy. So, like, line symmetry is all about folding, and point symmetry is more about twirling.
Think of the line of symmetry as a mirror (indeed try using a small hand rectangular hand mirror). a symmetry either side of a line is like a reflection of one side in the mirror.

It is a line of symmetry.
