Glide Reflection
It is a rotation.
A translation.
translation
The transformation described is known as a translation. In a translation, each point of a shape or object is moved a specified distance in a direction parallel to a given line. This results in the entire shape retaining its orientation and size while being repositioned in the coordinate plane.

When a translation is followed by a reflection across a line parallel to the direction of translation, the resulting transformation is a glide reflection. This transformation involves moving the shape in a specified direction (translation) and then flipping it over (reflection) across a parallel line. The combination results in the shape being both translated and reflected.

Specular reflection occurs when parallel rays of light hit a smooth surface and reflect off in a uniform direction, such as with a mirror.
This scenario illustrates the principle of reflection, where parallel light waves hit a smooth surface and bounce off in the same direction. Reflection occurs when light encounters a boundary or surface and changes direction without entering a new medium.
Parallel rays are reflected by a mirror such that they remain parallel after reflection. This is due to the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
