step below. Question 1 Hexagon AGHBGHCGHD GHEGHFGH is a reflected image of hexagon ABCDEF. The midpoints of the sides of hexagon
ABCDEF are also shown. Drag the line of reflection, Għ until the image coincides with the preimage. At this location, if the preimage flips about the line of reflection, it will flip onto itself. In how many different positions can you place GHso the image reflects onto the preimage in this manner? Describe the different positions. Be sure to pass the line of reflection through both vertices and midpoints before answering.
Hexagon AGHBGHCGHDGHEGHFGH coincides with hexagon ABCDEF when GH passes through the midpoints of opposite sides; that is, it is a perpendicular bisector of the two sides. HexagonAGHBGHCGHDGHEGHFGH also coincides with hexagon ABCDEF when the line of reflection joins a pair of vertices opposite one another on the hexagon. There are three perpendicular bisectors and three pairs of opposite vertices. In all, there are six lines of reflection that will map the hexagon back onto itself.
