Depending on the triangle, there can be 0, 1, or three lines of symmetry. A scalene triangle (all sides of different lengths) will have no lines of symmetry, an isosceles triangle (exactly two sides of the same length) will have one line of symmetry, and an equilateral triangle (all three sides of the same length) will have three lines of symmetry.

What shape has more than one line of symmetry?
A circle (infinitely many lines of symmetry), ellipse, rectangle, and all regular polygons.
What is line and point symmetry?
Oh, dude, line symmetry is when you can fold a shape in half and both sides match up perfectly, like a beautiful butterfly. Point symmetry is basically when a shape looks the same even after you give it a little spin, like a merry-go-round that never gets dizzy. So, like, line symmetry is all about folding, and point symmetry is more about twirling.
Why does a square have more lines of symmetry than a rectangle?
The diagonals of a rectangle aren't lines of symmetry unless it's square.
What triangle cannot exist?
a more than 3 sided triangle a triangle with more than one obtuse/right angle
How is symmetry used in everyday life?
Symmetry is often seen everyday by people of all ages in nature. Symmetry that we see everyday in nature is most often Bilateral Symmetry. This means that the two halves of an object are exactly mirror images of each other. Symmetry in humans the human face has a line of symmetry in some places, but some faces are more symmetrical than others. The more symmetrical your face the prettier your face will appear. A perfect example of this is supermodels and actresses. Another example of human symmetry is the kidneys, lungs, and the brain. If you draw a line or slice these organs in half, you will have a mirror image of the other. In flowers there are roughly identical petals, sepals, stamens, and leaves. While at the beach there are a wide variety of shells and underwater life with a line of symmetry, an example of this is a crab, a lobster, octopus, and starfish. Crystal G.
