The image of the point (,) when reflected in a line is (,). Write down the equation of the line .
if the image of the point (,) when reflected in a line is (,), line goes through midpoint of A (,) and (,)

since A (,) and (,) have same coordinate, line that passes through is line
coordinates of the midpoint will be:
, )=(,).... it is on and on as well
if so, the line must be line ;
