Reflection_Construction 

You can reflect any subset of your diagram about a line with these steps:

  1. Select ebd_Ebd170  one or more geometry objects to reflect.
  2. Click the Reflection tool ebd_Ebd171  in the Construct toolbox, or select Reflection from the Construct menu.
  3. Either click the cursor to place the reflection line on the screen, adjust the angle and click again, or select an existing line as the reflection line.

A copy of your selected geometry will appear on the other side of the reflection line.

Notice all points on the reflected geometry are written as "prime", i.e. A becomes A'. If you reflect the geometry again, A' becomes A".
