Hard

Which option is the mirror image of the given figure, with the mirror along the dashed line to its right?

Correct answer: D. Line (diagonal) at top left; small line (diagonal) at middle right; half-shaded hexagon, shaded up at bottom left; solid semicircle pointing up at bottom right

  • A. Line (diagonal) at bottom right; small line (diagonal) at middle left; half-shaded hexagon, shaded down at top right; solid semicircle pointing down at top left
  • B. Line (diagonal) at bottom left; small line (diagonal) at middle right; half-shaded hexagon, shaded down at top left; solid semicircle pointing down at top right
  • C. Line (diagonal) at top left; small line (diagonal) at middle right; half-shaded hexagon, shaded up at bottom left; solid semicircle pointing up at bottom right
  • D. Line (diagonal) at top left; small line (diagonal) at middle right; half-shaded hexagon, shaded up at bottom left; solid semicircle pointing up at bottom right

Explanation

A mirror standing beside the figure swaps left and right: every element moves to the opposite side, and anything that points or is shaded to the right now points or is shaded to the left. Top and bottom stay where they are. Option D is the only one where every element has changed this way. A is the water image (top and bottom swapped), not the mirror image. B is the figure turned upside down, which swaps top and bottom as well. C has one element moved to the mirrored position but still turned the original way.
