The answer depends on the context.

In algebra, a relationship, ~, is symmetric over a set S if for any two members, x and y, in S,

x ~ y implies that y ~ x.

For example, "equal to (=)" is symmetric but "greater than (>)" is not.


In geometry, a shape is symmetric if a transformation such as a rotation about an axis (of less than a whole circle) or reflection about some line can bring the shape back onto itself.

d. Math algorithms are complex and can easily be broken is not a disadvantage of symmetric cryptography. In fact, symmetric cryptography typically involves simpler mathematical operations that allow for fast encryption and decryption. The other options highlight significant drawbacks, such as the speed of encryption, lack of sender authentication, and the risk of compromising multiple parties if a single key is broken.
