Reflection in an affine hyperplane

ID: reflection-in-an-affine-hyperplane

For a nonzero real normal vector , orthogonal reflection in has the displayed affine map. It is with and . In homogeneous coordinates its matrix is
Every point on the hyperplane is fixed, and the signed normal displacement changes sign. Choosing any point on the hyperplane gives , so translating by , applying the reflection matrix and translating back gives the same transformation.
