The shape descibed is not a symmetric figure. If it is folded on the diagonal line described, then the corners would stick off the sides. If the question is implying that they want to fold it in a differant way, then it would not be symmetrical because of the line. The line would not be in the place on both sides.

What does symmetric figure mean?
A symmetric figure is a figure that is symmetrical. This means that if you fold it in half that both sides will line up. I hope this helped you! :)
Does a rectangle have a diagonal?
Yes, it is the line connecting opposite corners.
Is a diagonal line through a rectangle equal to the vertical and horizontal sides?
No. The diagonal through a rectangle can be computed via the Pythagorean theorem: c2 = a2 + b2 where c is the diagonal length and a and b are the horizontal and vertical lengths of the rectangle.
What is the length of diagonal line of a rectangle when length is 12 inches and width is 14?
The diagonal length is about 18.44 inches.
Is a diagonal line of a rectangle a line of symmetry?
No because diagonal lines do not count. Even though they might fit perfectly inside the rectangle, but those don't count. Only lines going horizontally or vertically count as lines of symmetry. :)
Which is longer a straight line or a diagonal line?
The diagonal line of a rectangle for example is greater than its length.
What does symmetric figure mean?
A symmetric figure is a figure that is symmetrical. This means that if you fold it in half that both sides will line up. I hope this helped you! :)
Can you use a diagonal line to make a rectangle symmetrical?
No.
Do all figures have a symmetric line?
No, a figure can be asymmetrical.
Does a rectangle have a diagonal?
Yes, it is the line connecting opposite corners.
What is length of diagonal line in rectangle 32 feet by 36 feet?
Using Pythagoras: 322+362 = 2320 and the square root of this is the length of the diagonal
What is the length of a diagonal line in a rectangle 24 feet by 30 feet?
The diagonal is approximately 38.42 feet.
Is a diagonal line through a rectangle equal to the vertical and horizontal sides?
No. The diagonal through a rectangle can be computed via the Pythagorean theorem: c2 = a2 + b2 where c is the diagonal length and a and b are the horizontal and vertical lengths of the rectangle.
Does a rectangle have a diagonal line of symmetry?
No, it does not. Take a sheet of A4 paper and fold it across the diagonal, and you will see that the two halfs do not line up.
What is the length of diagonal line of a rectangle when length is 12 inches and width is 14?
The diagonal length is about 18.44 inches.
How do you trisect a rectangle?
To trisect a rectangle first draw the two diagonals (lines going from the top left corner, to the bottom right and top right to bottom left.) Where those two diagonals intersect is the center of the rectangle. Next, draw a line through the center of the rectangle that is parallel to the top and bottom of the rectangle. this should divide the rectangle into two halves. Next draw the diagonal for the top half of the rectangle (A line from the top left corner, to the middle of the right side.) Where this diagonal intersects with the diagonal of the diagonal of the entire rectangle is 1/3 the length. Repeat the previous step for the bottom half of the rectangle. The line connecting the top intersection, and the bottom intersection is the trisection line.
What 2 triangles form when you draw a diagonal line across a rectangle?
right triangles and
