Reflection symmetry, also known as line symmetry or mirror symmetry, occurs when an object can be divided into two identical halves that are mirror images of each other across a line, known as the line of symmetry. This property means that for every point on one side of the line, there is a corresponding point directly opposite on the other side, equidistant from the line. Reflection symmetry is often observed in nature, art, and design, and can be found in shapes, patterns, and even in biological organisms. Objects with reflection symmetry remain unchanged when reflected across the line of symmetry.

Does a square have reflection symmetry?

Yes, a square has reflection symmetry. It can be divided into two identical halves by multiple lines of symmetry, specifically four: one vertical, one horizontal, and two diagonal lines. Each of these lines creates a mirror image on either side, demonstrating the square's symmetrical properties.
