The letters H and Z have both line symmetry and rotational symmetry
An equilateral triangle has both line symmetry and rotational symmetry. A non-equilateral isosceles triangle has line symmetry but not rotational symmetry. A scalene triangle has neither kind of symmetry.
Lines of symmetry are 2 dimensional. Planes of symmetry are 3D.
Approximate Symmetry is approximately symmetrical. Regular Symmetry is Symmetrical for sure.
no shape does! * * * * * Not true. A parallelogram has rotational symmetry of order 2, but no lines of symmetry.
