the image and the preimage have different orientations.
the image and the preimage have the same orientation.

Brief Explanations

Reflection is a rigid transformation. Rigid transformations preserve the shape and size of the pre - image, so the image and pre - image are congruent (same size). Also, reflection changes the orientation of the figure. For example, if you reflect a triangle over a line, the order of its vertices (clockwise or counter - clockwise) will be reversed.

Answer:

The image and the preimage have different orientations.
