A line which divides a body into two parts, such that each part is the mirror image of the others, then the line is called a line of symmetry. If such a line is parallel to the horizontal plane, then it is called a horizontal line of symmetry. Else, if the line of symmetry is perpendicular to the horizontal plane then it is a vertical line of symmetry.

How many lines of symmetry does an 8 have?
The number 8 has only 2 lines of symmetry; Vertical and Horizontal.
Does a rectangle or square have exactly 2 lines of symmetry?
Technically, a square is a rectangle with four lines of symmetry. A non-square rectangle has exactly two lines of symmetry: the vertical and the horizontal.
What shape has four right angles but only two lines of symmetry?
A rectangle. Obviously the right angles are in the four corners of the rectangle. The lines of symmetry occur across the horizontal and vertical. There are no lines of symmetry on the diagonal.
How many lines of symmetry does a recatangle have?
two Edit: Actually it has four - One vertical, one horizontal and two rotational lines at the diagonals !
