The question is missing the figure. So, I have attached the figure below.

Answer:


x=0

Explanation:

Line of reflection is nothing but the axis of symmetry for the original shape and its reflected shape.

Here the original shape is a polygon ABCDE. The reflected shape is A'B'C'D'E'.

From the figure, the point D and D' overlap each other. Each point of the original shape is the same distance as that of the reflected point from the y-axis.

Therefore, the axis of symmetry is the vertical y-axis. Hence, this is also the line of reflection of the polygon ABCDE.

The equation of y-axis is given as:
x=0

Therefore, the equation for the line of reflection is
x=0.
