B. False

Answer 2

the red point is a point of symmetry. Drawing any line through that red point will not form a line of symmetry. Try it out. Print out the image on a piece of paper. Fold the image over the supposed "line of symmetry". You'll see that things don't match up.

Answer 3

so true?

Answer 4

No, it's false

Answer 5

oh ok

Answer 6

it happens sometimes but only in cases like this

only the dashed lines go through the point of symmetry (point O) and the dashed lines are also lines of symmetry

however, no other lines are lines of symmetry. We cannot add in any line we like that goes through point O and have it be a line of symmetry

Answer 7

so I agree with @agent0smith

the answer is false
