Concept

A vertical mirror produces lateral inversion: left and right exchange places, while top and bottom remain at the same levels.

Each component must also reverse its horizontal orientation; merely rearranging the quadrants is not sufficient.

Application

  1. The triangular form in the upper-left quadrant moves to the upper-right quadrant and reverses horizontally.

  2. The curved form in the upper-right quadrant moves to the upper-left quadrant with its opening reversed.

  3. The plus sign in the lower-left quadrant moves to the lower-right quadrant; its symmetric shape remains visually unchanged.

  4. The slanted form in the lower-right quadrant moves to the lower-left quadrant and its slant reverses.

Cross-check

The horizontal divider, vertical divider, and the top-bottom positions remain unchanged, so all four components can be checked quadrant by quadrant.

The resulting figure has the curved form at upper-left, the triangular form at upper-right, the reversed slanted form at lower-left, and the plus sign at lower-right.
