Performing a Symmetry on Geometry

You can transform geometry by means of a symmetry operation. Symmetry is an operation in which an element is transformed by means of a mirror symmetry with respect to a reference plane, line or point.

Before you begin: Create a 3D shape containing a geometric element.
