(a)
Interpretation:
The inverse symmetry operation of the given symmetry operation is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
A symmetry operation is defined as an action on an object to reproduce an arrangement that is identical to its original spatial arrangement. The spatial arrangement of the object remains identical after a symmetry operation. The point of reference through which a symmetry operation takes place is termed as a symmetry element.
