Which transformation reflects a figure through a line?

Explanation:
Reflecting a figure across a line flips it to create a mirror image with the line acting as the axis of symmetry. In this transformation the line stays fixed, and every point moves to the opposite side at the same perpendicular distance from the line. Translation just slides the figure without flipping, central symmetry is a 180-degree turn about a point, and rotation is turning around a point by an angle. So the picture that represents reflecting through a line is axial symmetry.
