Line symmetry is like with butterflies or flowers, where you can slice a straight line through the midpoint of a shape, and have both sides be identical.
Reflectional symmetry is where lets say to have half of a ♥. If you shined a reflection, an exact reflection, you would have line symmetry.
In some terms, they are the same. In some terms, they are both linked together. In some terms, they are used completely different from each other. It's all about the situation you have symmetrical-wise.
Hope this helps!

What is the definition of reflectional symmetry?
An image has Reflectional Symmetry if there is at least one line which splits the image in half so that one side is the mirror image of the other. Reflectional symmetry is also called line symmetry or mirror symmetry because there is a line in the figure where a mirror could be placed, and the figure would look the same.
What is reflectional summetry?
Reflection symmetry, reflectional symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, mirror-image symmetry, or bilateral symmetry is symmetry with respect to reflection
Does a regular heptagon have 1 line of reflectional symmetry?
No, it has seven.
What is reflectional symmetry?
Um, it's the exact matching of parts on either side of a straight line, so it's exactly the same either side. I think It's sometimes called line symmetry, mirror symmetry or bilateral symmetry!
Does a rectangle have both rotational and reflectional symmetry?
no because if you rotate a rectangle it is not the same

Does a hexagon have both rotational and reflectional symmetry?
Yes it does. A regular hexagon will have both rotational and reflectional symmetry about its centre.
How many lines of reflectional symmetry does the trapezoid have?
None normally unless it's in the form of an isosceles trapezoid which has 1 line of symmetry.
Is france's flag reflectional rotational or both in symmetry?
Reflectional only.Reflectional only.Reflectional only.Reflectional only.
Does a pentagon have reflectional symmetry?
A pentagon does have reflective symmetry.
Does a triangle have reflectional symmetry?
yes because you can fold it in half and it will be exactly the same on either side.
