    Reflection Symmetry (sometimes called Line Symmetry or Mirror Symmetry) is easy to see, because one half is the reflection of the other half. The reflection in this lake also has symmetry, but in this case: 1. the Line of Symmetryruns left-to-right 2. it is not perfect symmetry, because the image is changed a little by the lake surface.

    The Line of Symmetry (also called the Mirror Line) can be in any direction. But there are four common directions, and they are named for the line they make on the standard XY graph. See these examples (the artwork was made using Symmetry Artist) :

    Not all shapes have lines of symmetry, or they may have several lines of symmetry. For example, a Triangle can have 3, or 1 or nolines of symmetry: I have collected some more examples at Lines of Symmetry of Plane Shapes.

  1. Aug 3, 2023 · A shape is said to have a reflection symmetry if there exists at least one line that divides a figure into two halves such that one-half is the mirror image of the other half. Thus, it is also known as line symmetry or mirror symmetry.

  2. Reflection symmetry is also known as line symmetry or mirror symmetry. It states that if there exists at least one line that divides a figure into two halves such that one half is the mirror image of the other half.

  3. In mathematics, reflection symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, or mirror-image symmetry is symmetry with respect to a reflection. That is, a figure which does not change upon undergoing a reflection has reflectional symmetry.

  4. Dec 14, 2023 · Reflection symmetry, also known as line symmetry, occurs when an object can be divided into two identical halves through a line of reflection. For example, a square has reflection symmetry because it looks the same when reflected along its vertical or horizontal axis.

  5. If a shape has one or more lines of symmetry, the shape is said to have reflection symmetry. Important aspects of Reflection Symmetry: 1. A figure or shape or an object can have one or more than one line of symmetry. 2. The direction of the line of symmetry is not fixed. 3. Both the halves are congruent and mirror images of each other.
