Answer:

The length of segment BC is;


41\text{ units}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the figure in the attached image.

Quadrilateral ABCD is reflected across line m to create quadrilateral A'B'C'D'

Since the Quadrilateral was only reflected, the resulting image quadrilateral must be congruent.

So;


\text{ABCD}\cong A^(\prime)B^(\prime)C^(\prime)D^(\prime)

Since the two quadrilaterals are congruent, then the corresponding sides of the quadrilaterals will also be congruent.


BC\cong B^(\prime)C^(\prime)

Given in the diagram;


B^(\prime)C^(\prime)=41

So;


\begin{gathered} BC=B^(\prime)C^(\prime)=41 \\ BC=41\text{ units} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the length of segment BC is;


41\text{ units}
