symmetrical is where if you split it in half it would look the same on both sides but flipped over and asymmetrical is where each side is different
thank you. you really helped me.

What is an asymmetrical shape?
Some shapes do not have any lines of symmetry. These shapes are called asymmetrical. It doesn't matter how you fold an asymmetrical shape--the two halves just won't match!
Which molecule has an asymmetrical shape?
water molecule
What shape has 6 sides and is symmetrical?
A hexagon
What are symmetrical shapes?
A symmetrical shape is a shape that, if you draw a straight line from one point of it to the other, will cut the shape exactly in half so that the same image is on both sides. For example, if you cut a perfect square in half from top to bottom, or side to side, or diagonal to diagonal, both sides are symmetrical.
What shape has at least 1 line of symmetry with 11 letters?
a symmetrical shape
What is an asymmetrical sail?
"Asymmetrical" is a description of the shape of the perimeter (outline) of the sail. It just means that it is not symmetrical.
Are Porifera bilaterally symmetrical?
most ponges are asymmetrical, some are radially symmetrical. in shape, they maybe cylindrical,vase-like,rounded,sac-like or branched.
Is a dome house Symmetrical or Asymmetrical?
Symmetrical. A symmetrical shape is simply one that when cut, or folded, in half, the one half can reflect the other half. So, each half looks the same, but as a mirrored reflection of the other. On the other hand, something that is of irregular shape - which is not symmetrical in that when cut into halves in any plane at all, the pieces are not a mirror reflection of one another - is referred to as "asymmetrical". A dome house is of symmetrical shape.
How can you tell if a shape is symmetrical?
It is equal on both sides so there is no difference between the sides !!
What is the difference between line symmetry and line of symmetry?
A symmetrical shape is said to have line symmetry. A shape that has line symmetry can have one or more lines of symmetry
Is an octagon shape symmetrical?
yes it is a symmetrical shape
What is the major difference between an eclipse and a hyperbola?
The difference, major or not, is that an eclipse and a hyperbola are not related, at all. You might have meant to say "Ellipse". In that case, an ellipse is a closed line shape of which the left and right bouts are symmetrical and the top and bottom bouts are also symmetrical. A hyperbola can never close, and only its left and right parts are symmetrical.
What is an asymmetrical shape?
Some shapes do not have any lines of symmetry. These shapes are called asymmetrical. It doesn't matter how you fold an asymmetrical shape--the two halves just won't match!
Does a sea sponge has radial symmetry?
No Animals display different kinds of symmetry. The Radiata include radially symmetrical Ctenophora and Cnidaria (previously Coelenterata). Echinodermata are also largely radially symmetrical. Many other phyla, such as all worm phyla are termed bilaterally symmetrical. Sponges (Porifera) are very primitive and display neither of these types of symmetry. In fact they are usually very irregular and asymmetrical in shape.
What type of symmetry means not symmetrical?
Asymmetry is when a shape is not symmetrical.
Which molecule has an asymmetrical shape?
water molecule
What shape is the large magellanic galaxy?
asymmetrical
