Solution

The correct option is B

Perpendicular bisector of the given line


Let A and B be the two fixed symmetric points. Join A and B.

Draw a perpendicular bisector of this line.

Mark the ends of the perpendicular bisector PQ.

This line PQ is called the line of symmetry or axis of symmetry of the line AB.
