(15 POINTS PLEASE HURRY!!) Open the parallel lines reflection application. The right set of parallel lines is a reflection across the y-axis of the left set of parallel lines. Click the reflect over y-axis button. Are the two sets of parallel lines the same? What does this mean about how parallel lines change when you reflect them?

Based on the fact that the right line is a reflection across the y-axis, the lines are the same, they are just in a different position.

What is a Reflection?

This refers to the rigid transformation type that is used to represent an image and does not change its size or length of it.

With this understanding, we can see that the pre-image and the image in a rigid transformation are congruent which makes the lines to be the same, even if they are in a different position.
