To plot the image of point C under a reflection across line n, follow these steps:

  1. Draw a perpendicular line: From point C, draw a straight line that is perpendicular to line n. Let's call the intersection point of this perpendicular line and line n as point P.
  2. Measure the distance: Measure the distance from point C to point P.
  3. Extend and mark: Extend the perpendicular line you drew in Step 1 past line n. On this extended line, mark a new point, C', such that the distance from P to C' is equal to the distance from C to P, and C' is on the opposite side of line n from C.

Point C' is the image of point C under the reflection across line n.
