Let G be a square matrix, and R =: |: (1&|."1) (=&i.) #G NB. rotation M =: |: ( |."1) (=&i.) #G NB. mirror-image dp =: +/ . *

Prove the following statement:

If
(1) G -: |:G              NB. G is symmetric
(2) G -: R dp G dp |:R    NB. G is rotationally symmetric
then
(3) G -: M dp G dp |:M    NB. G is mirror-image symmetric

I can prove this using subscripts (i.e., involving expressions like (<i;j){G ), but is there a proof involving just the arrays G, R and M?
