Best Answer

If it has a line of symmetry; if it can be "cut in half" and both halves looks identical. For example, if you imagine a square, then imagine a line straight down the middle, each side of the line is identical to the other. That line is the "line of symmetry". Some objects can have many lines of symmetry, some have none.
