This example demonstrates the concept of reflection transformation. It involves basic knowledge of linear equations and vectors. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Line, and Mirror, the effect of reflection transformation can be constructed. Suitable for students at middle school level and above to learn about geometric transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

Polygon(A, B, C, D, E) → poly1, a, b, c, d, e
Line(F, G) → f
Mirror(A, f) → A'
Mirror(B, f) → B'
Mirror(C, f) → C'
Mirror(D, f) → D'
Mirror(E, f) → E'
Polygon(A', B', C', D', E') → poly1', a', b', c', d', e'
