A reflection in a line l is a correspondence that pairs each point in the plane and not on the linewith point P' such that l is the perpendicular bisector of segment PP'. IF P is on l then P is paired with itself ... Under a reflection the image is laterally inverted. Thus reflection does NOT preserve orientation...

Does a reflection preserve the slope of a line?
yes!
What is a reflection in geometry?
Reflection of an object is the flip of that subject on a particular line, that is called line of reflection.
How is a line of reflection like a line of symmetry?
A line of reflection and a line of symmetry both show the reverse of an image.
What is the line of reflection in symmetry?
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.
What reflection flips a point in a line?
There is no form of reflection that flips one point on a line and leaves the rest of the line unchanged.
