The image of trapezoid PQRS after a reflection across Line W Y is trapezoid P'Q'R'S'.

2 trapezoids are shown. Line W Y is the line of reflection. Line segment R R prime has a midpoint at point Z. Line segment S S prime has a midpoint at point X.
What is the relationship between RR' and SS'?

RR' = 2SS'
RR' = 4SS'
RR' || SS'
RR' Perpendicular to SS'

RR' || SS'.

Reason: For a reflection, each segment joining a point and its image is perpendicular to the line of reflection and has its midpoint on that line. Thus RR' and SS' are both perpendicular to WY, so they are parallel to each other.
