Question
Draw the images of points A and B in line l of figure and name them as A’ and B’, respectively. Measure AB and A’B’. Are they equal?
Solution
Image of line segment AB is A’B’ as shown below in figure.
Now, it is clear that the length of line segment AB is equal to length of a line segment A’B’.
