reflections Reflections
Please enable Java for an interactive construction (with Cinderella).

Use interactive geometry to improve your understanding of the mathematics of reflections: what they are, what they do and the effect they have on simple shapes. Find out about the mirror line. Use geometric construction to build some mathematical diagrams based on reflections,
