Draw the figure and write the number of lines of symmetry: Shape Draw a small figure Number of lines of symmetry Square

Any object or shape which can be cut in two equal halves in such a way that both the parts are exactly the same is called symmetrical. The line which divides the shape is called the symmetry. So, if we place a mirror on the line of symmetry we can see the complete image. When a symmetrical shape is folded along the line of symmetry, one half of the shape exactly lies over the other half which shows that one half of the shape is exactly the same as the other half. We know that, a quadrilateral having four lines of symmetry is a square. A square is a quadrilateral having four equal sides and equal diagonals. So, the lines drawn from mid-point of opposite sides and two diagonals divides the square into two equal parts. Shape Small figure No.of lines of symmetry Square 4
