The horizontal line MN below ZY2R3U is the surface of still water. Which option shows its water image?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) →
A water surface (a horizontal mirror line) turns top into bottom: every character stays in its own place, the order Z Y 2 R 3 U does not change, and each character is turned upside down. 3 looks the same after this flip, so it keeps its shape.
Option (1) — 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. This is the image in a vertical mirror: the order is reversed and the characters are turned left to right, not upside down.
Option (4) — Incorrect. The character 2 is in the right place but is not turned upside down; everything else is correct.
