What to Focus On

  • A figure is symmetrical if it can be divided into two identical halves.
  • The line that divides the figure into two matching parts is called the line of symmetry.
  • Folding the figure along the line of symmetry should make both halves match exactly.

  • 2-D shapes can have one or more lines of symmetry.
  • Some shapes have no symmetry at all.
  • The number of lines of symmetry depends on the shape's properties.

  • A symmetric point is the mirror image of a given point across a line.
  • The line of symmetry is the perpendicular bisector of the segment joining a point and its image.
  • Distance from the point to the line equals distance from the image to the line.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A figure can only have one line of symmetry.

All triangles have at least one line of symmetry.

The letter 'N' has a line of symmetry because it looks balanced.
