A composition transformation of reflections across two intersecting lines is equivalent to a rotation about the point where those two lines intersect. The angle of rotation will be twice the angle between the two intersecting lines.
For example, if the lines intersect at an angle of \( \theta \), the composition of the two reflections will result in a rotation of \( 2\theta \) around the point of intersection. Thus, if you want an image that is the same as the one resulted from this composition, you can perform a rotation about the intersection point by the appropriate angle.
