Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

To reflect line segment BC over line m, BB' will be perpendicular to the line m

and line m bisector of BB'.

So, the correct answer is option A

A) Line m is the perpendicular bisector of line segment BB' and the line segment CC'

Option b is wrong , it is impossible for the line B'C' to be perpendicular to line BC. B'C' is the image of BC.

Both option c and d is wrong because the perpendicular distance from b to the line m not equal to the perpendicular distance from c to the line m.
