Bilateral symmetry
bikateral symmetry
This is referred to as bilateral symmetry, for instance the human body whose left side is more or less a mirror image of it's right side (on the exterior, that is).
They are 'mirror images'
Lines of symmetry are 'mirror images'
For an equilateral triangle, there are three axes of symmetry. A plane figure is symmetrical about the line l if, whenever P is a point of the figure, so too is P', where P' is the mirror-image of P in the line l. The line is called a line of symmetry (or axis of symmetry), and the figure is said to be a symmetrical by the reflection in the line l. An equilateral triangle with reflection symmetry has two halves that are mirror images of each other. If the shape is folded over its line of symmetry, the two halves of the shape match exactly. So, we can say that the two halves of an equilateral triangle are matched exactly only when its shape is folded over the lines of symmetry that passes through their vertixes and the midpoint of its sides. Thus, an equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry, and three angles of rotation. If you rotate any shape a full turn, it will look like it did before you rotated it. When you rotate a shape less than a full turn about its center point and it looks exactly as it did before you rotated it, it has rotation symmetry. In an equilateral triangle there are three places in the rotation where the triangle will look exactly the same as its starting position. If we turn the triangle one third of a full turn (60 degrees), the vertex 1 will be at position 3, vertex 2 will be at position 1, and vertex 3 will be at position 2, and the triangle will look like its starting position.
bikateral symmetry
If they are completely mirror images, then it would be Perfect Symmetry, as long as both pieces are congruent.
line of symmetry is divides a figure into halves are the mirror images ofeach other
line of symmetry is divides a figure into halves are the mirror images ofeach other
It is a line of symmetry.
They have axial symmetry.
bilateral symmetry
A line that divides the letter so that the 2 halves are mirror images. Ex. The letter V ... A vertical line thru the bottom makes 2 parts that are mirror images, so that vertical line is the axis of symmetry. But.. A Capital E would not have a vertical axis of symmetry. Capital E would have a horizontal line splitting thru the middle line as its axis of symmetry.
I think its bilateral
It is called line symmetry when we can actually draw a line down the middle of a figure that divides the figure into two mirror images.
A giraffes symmetry is the same as a human's, bilateral symmetry. drawing a line down the one plane through the central axis produces two halves that are mirror images of each other.
The different types of symmetry are rotational symmetry whereby the various object parts are related by rotation angles, and reflectional symmetry where halves of the object form the mirror images.
