a line of symetry can be applied to one shape but cannot go between two shapes unless those two shapes are infact a part of one larger, symetrical shape.
a line of reflection goes between two shapes. so O l O this is two circles with a line of reflection in between them. if there was a line of reflection between two e's then one of the e's would have to be a backwards e.
Line or reflective symmetry is really a special case of rotational symmetry but from a different viewpoint. In line symmetry imagine a line going north to south on the page. If you rotate an image out of the page around that line through 180 degrees you get a reflection. For rotational symmetry imagine that same line being perpendicular to the page so that you see it as a dot. The image is then rotated around that dot.
A glide reflection is a combination of translation along some line and reflection in the line. Human footprints are a good example. Glide symmetry is another way to refer to it.
Line of reflection.
The letters H and Z have both line symmetry and rotational symmetry
No, line symmetry and diagonal symmetry are not the same. Line symmetry, also known as reflection symmetry, occurs when a figure can be divided into two equal halves that are mirror images of each other across a line. Diagonal symmetry, on the other hand, occurs when a figure can be divided into two equal halves that are mirror images of each other across a diagonal line. In essence, while both involve symmetry across a line, the orientation and positioning of that line differ between the two types of symmetry.
A line of reflection and a line of symmetry both show the reverse of an image.
The line of reflection in symmetry is the imaginary line that travels down the line of symmetry. For example, in a square, the line of reflection would be the line down the center of the square, and the line down the diagonal of the square.
A line of symmetry is usually within the object whereas a line of reflection need not be.
A symmetrical shape is said to have line symmetry. A shape that has line symmetry can have one or more lines of symmetry
A Line of Symmetry.
square
Reflection symmetry, reflectional symmetry, line symmetry, mirror symmetry, mirror-image symmetry, or bilateral symmetry is symmetry with respect to reflection
Line symmetry is another name for reflection symmetry. One half is a reflection of the other half. The line of symmetry is the line where you could fold the image and have both halves match exactly.

the line of reflection
The line of symmetry is the reflection of an object. The Letter F does not have a line of symmetry.
An isosceles triangle has 1 line of symmetry
