Look at a shape and see if you can see that two halves mirror each other. To check, get a mirror and put it along this line. If the shape still looks the same using the mirror you have a line of symmetry. You can also trace half of the shape, turn the tracing paper over, put it on the other half of the shape and check it is the same.
Yes another way to do it is think REFLECTION. If they are exactly the same, you have a line of symmetry!

How can you determine if a Polygon has Symmetry?
yeah babes!! i like to suck on my hairy pen, it fell in my toilet. :)
How do you determine whether two sides of a polygon are congruent?
The answer depends on what information you do have.
What do you call a polygon with no lines of symmetry?
an irregular polygon
Will the number of lines of symmetry for a polygon always be the same as the number of vertices?
No, a polygon can have fewer lines of symmetry.
How many axes of symmetry does a polygon have?
A polygon need not have any axes of symmetry. It can have at most n axes where n is the number of sides that the polygon has.
What is another name for equiangular polygon?
Regular polygon Equilateral polygon Polygon with rotational symmetry
What polygon that does not have line of symmetry?
A scalene triangle has no axis of symmetry.
What is the rule for the number lines of symmetry of any regular polygon?
Number of lines of symmetry = Number of sides of the regular polygon
How many lines of symmetry does a eleven sided polygon have?
A regular Undegon (11 sided polygon) has 11 lines of symmetry. It also has an order of rotation symmetry of 11.
What is a symmetrical polygon?
As the name suggests, they are polygons that have one or more lines of symmetry or rotational symmetry of order two or more. A symmetric polygon is not the same as a regular polygon.
What is a polygon with 90 degree rotational symmetry and no lines of symmetry?
Blue
How many lines of symmetry does a polygon has?
A polygon need not have any lines of symmetry. The maximum number of lines of symmetry is attained if the polygon is regular; and this is the number of sides (or vertices) of the polygon. If a regular polygon has an even number of sides, then the lines of symmetry are those joining opposite vertices, and those joining the mid-points of opposite sides. If the polygon has an odd number of sides/vertices, the lines of symmetry are those joining each vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side.
