Answer
Explanation
The image of an object as seen in a mirror is its mirror reflection or mirror image.
-
In such an image, the right side of the object appears on the left side and vice versa.
-
A mirror-image is therefore said to be laterally inverted and the phenomenon is called the lateral inversion.
-
So, the mirror image of the figure is the horizontally opposite figure.
