Explanation:

In a reflection transformation, the line of reflection is always the perpendicular bisector of the segments joining corresponding vertices (like \(AA'\), \(BB'\), \(CC'\)). This is a fundamental property of reflections in geometry: the line of reflection is equidistant from each vertex and its image, and it forms a right angle with the segment connecting them. So, regardless of the position of the line of reflection, this property holds.

Answer:

yes
