Important Questions on Symmetry
Given the line(s) of symmetry, find the other hole(s):
What other name can you give to the line of symmetry of
A circle?
Copy the diagram and complete the shape to be symmetric about the mirror line:
In the following figure, the mirror line (i.e., the line of symmetry) is given as a dotted line. Complete each figure performing reflection in the dotted (mirror) line. Are you able to recall the name of the figure you complete?
Find the number of lines of symmetry for each of the following shape:
The following figures have more than one line of symmetry. Such figures are said to have multiple lines of symmetry.
Identify multiple lines of symmetry, if any, in the following figure:
State the number of lines of symmetry for the following figures:
A circle
In the following figures, the mirror line (that is the line of symmetry) is given as dotted line. Complete each figure performing reflection in the dotted (mirror) line. Also, try to recall the name of the complete figure.
Copy the figure with punched holes and find the axes of symmetry for the following:
How many lines of symmetry does the given figure have? Draw these lines.
Identify multiple lines of symmetry, if any, in the following figure:
Copy the figure given here. Take any one diagonal as a line of symmetry and shade a few more squares to make the figure symmetric about a diagonal. Is there more than one way to do that? Will the figure be symmetric about both the diagonals?
State the number of lines of symmetry for the following figures.
A quadrilateral
What other name can you give to the line of symmetry of an isosceles triangle?
