What to Focus On

  • Symmetry means repeated parts in a definite pattern.
  • A figure with repeated parts is symmetrical.
  • Some figures are not symmetrical because they do not show a repeating pattern.
  • A line of symmetry makes two mirror halves.
  • The two halves overlap exactly when folded.
  • A figure with a line of symmetry has reflection symmetry.
  • Reflection moves matching parts to opposite sides of a symmetry line.
  • In a square, points on one side swap with matching points on the other side.
  • A figure with a line or lines of symmetry has reflection symmetry.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If a figure looks balanced, it must have a line of symmetry.

Every figure with 360° symmetry has rotational symmetry.

Line symmetry and rotational symmetry mean the same thing.
