Let’s go through each pair of shapes and decide if they are reflections (mirror images) of each other.

A reflection means one shape is flipped over a line — like looking in a mirror. The shape stays the same size and shape, but its orientation is reversed left-to-right or top-to-bottom.

We’ll check each pair:

---

1. Two parallelograms
They look identical in orientation — both slant the same way. Not mirrored.
→ Not a reflection

2. Two arrows pointing opposite directions
One points right, one points left — perfect mirror image.
→ Is a reflection

3. Two curved shapes (like arches)
Both curve the same way — not flipped.
→ Not a reflection

4. Two lightning bolts
Same direction, same tilt — no flip.
→ Not a reflection

5. Two rounded rectangles
Identical orientation — no mirroring.
→ Not a reflection

6. Two cylinders
Same view, same orientation — not reflected.
→ Not a reflection

7. Two right triangles
Both have the right angle on the bottom left — same orientation.
→ Not a reflection

8. Two arrows — one horizontal, one vertical
Different directions entirely — not even same shape orientation.
→ Not a reflection

9. Two wavy lines
Same wave pattern, same direction — no flip.
→ Not a reflection

10. Two ovals
Same shape, same orientation — not mirrored.
→ Not a reflection

Only pair #2 shows two figures that are reflections of each other.
