When a figure undergoes a reflection, it changes orientation only.

A reflection flips a figure over a line (the line of reflection), which changes the orientation of the figure but does not affect its size or shape. The position may change in the sense that the figure moves across the line of reflection, but its overall placement relative to the reflection line does not alter its dimensions.
