Reflection is a type of transformation in geometry where an object is flipped over a line called the line of reflection. The object creates a mirror image that is identical in size and shape but reversed. This process helps in understanding symmetry and position of objects in space.
In Class 6 Maths Chapter 9 on Symmetry students learn about figures that have a balanced arrangement of parts. A figure is said to have symmetry if one half is a mirror image of the other. The chapter explains types of symmetry such as reflection and rotational symmetry with examples and applications.
When a shape has both reflection and rotational symmetry it means that the shape can be folded along a line (reflection symmetry) and can be rotated around a central point (rotational symmetry) without changing its appearance. Therefore it has both types of symmetry.
