Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (B) Image B

Explanation

Reflection in the horizontal X-axis reverses vertical orientation but preserves the left-to-right order of the letters. The reflected P has its bowl below the baseline; H,X and I retain their horizontal-reflection symmetry while the other letters flip vertically. B applies this transformation to every letter.
