Choose the correct water image of 1PC8N5, the water surface being the horizontal line MN below it.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) →
A water surface (a horizontal mirror line) turns top into bottom: every character stays in its own place, the order 1 P C 8 N 5 does not change, and each character is turned upside down. C and 8 look the same after this flip, so they keep their shape.
Option (2) — Incorrect. This is the group turned through 180° (half a turn): each character is flipped both ways, so it is upside down as well as reversed.
Option (3) — Incorrect. The character N is in the correct place but is not turned upside down; everything else is correct.
Option (4) — Incorrect. This is the image in a vertical mirror: the order is reversed and the characters are turned left to right, not upside down.
