Question

How many lines of symmetry does the following figure have?
A.1 line of symmetry
B.2 lines of symmetry
C.3 lines of symmetry
D.An infinite number of lines of symmetry

Answer 1

Sorry it's a bit blurry, but yeah it's just a rectangle.

Answer 2

what do you think the answer is?

Answer 3

Either A or D?

Answer 4

Think you could upload it again but better?
But if you know what symmetry is you can figure it out without us.
How could it be D though?

Answer 5

Cause you could fold it up many times, and it's basically just a vertical rectangle.

Answer 6

that picture looks like a blurry door in the distance

Answer 7

Yeah that's basically it,

Answer 8

line of symmetry is basically a line you can draw through a shape that both sides of the line will look the same

Answer 9

Well you could fold it vertical and horizontally . But I don't see anymore ways.

Answer 10

oh okaaay

Answer 11

what about diagonally?

Answer 12

okaay

Answer 13

and can you fold a rectangle diagonally ? @jdoe0001

Answer 14

another why to thinkof line of symmetry is if you fold the shape along the line of symmetry, the 2 halves will match up or line up

Answer 15

after you flip one of the sides, you can tuck it to the other
origin symmetry shows up that way

Answer 16

if you fold the rectangle diagonally, you will get something that looks like

Answer 17

@Mhm120 No.

Answer 18

So does that mean there are 3 lines of symmetry?

Answer 19

I don't see a third.

Answer 20

so it's 2?

Answer 21

Thats what I think.

Answer 22

Okay i'll just put 2. :)
