Ok so if there was a rectangle ABCD, (whose height and width vary), can D be seen as a reflection of A in the line BC?

Or am I totally wrong and this only applies if ABCD is a square?

I should learn to edit: what I meant by 'height and width vary' was that they are not the same.

Your statement will apply to a square if you are naming the vertices in an unusual way i.e. A, B, D, C going round but not to any other rectangle.
It is conventional practice to name a polygon going round in order so that for a rectangle D will be next to A.

Seems to me like it's only a reflection if ABCD is a square.
