Brief Explanations

When a figure is reflected across a line, the line of reflection is the perpendicular bisector of the segment joining a point and its image. Here, line \( \overline{TG}\) is the line of reflection. For point \(A\) and its image \(A'\), line \( \overline{TG}\) bisects \( \overline{AA'}\). The mid - point of a segment is the point that divides the segment into two equal parts. Since \( \overline{TG}\) bisects \( \overline{AA'}\), the point \(F\) (where \( \overline{AA'}\) and \( \overline{TG}\) intersect) is the mid - point of \( \overline{AA'}\).

Answer:

F is the midpoint of \( \overline{AA'}\) because \( \overline{TG}\) bisects \( \overline{AA'}\) (the first option).
