What are the four lines of symmetry?
There are 4 types of symmetry, reflection, transition, glide reflection, and rotation. They all basically mean the same thing, except they are figured out differently.
Shapes with no line of symmetry?
All regular shapes have a line of symmetry. But you can get rid of its line of symmetry by making it irregular (so the angles aren't the same).
Are center of symmetry and inversion symmetry one and the same?
No, the centre of symmetry is a point usually somewhere in the middle of an object around which things like rotational or reflection occurs. Inversion symmetry is a sort of symmetry itself and not a point like the centre.
What figure has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry?
A figure that has rotational symmetry but not line symmetry is a figure that can be rotated by a certain angle and still look the same, but cannot be reflected across a line to create a mirror image of itself. An example of such a figure is a regular pentagon, which has rotational symmetry of 72 degrees but does not have any lines of symmetry. This means that if you rotate a regular pentagon by 72 degrees, it will look the same, but you cannot reflect it across any line to create a mirror image.
What kinds of polygons are symmetrical?
All regular polygons A polygon is symmetrical if its sides that cross the line of symmetry are halved by the line of symmetry and if the sides that do not cross the line of symmetry have the same positions in space, the same lengths, and the same angles with their neighboring sides as do the sides on the other side of the line of symmetry. The only symmetrical triangles are isosceles triangles (equilateral triangles are isosceles). The only symmetrical quadrilaterals are squares, rectangles, rhombi (the line of symmetry connects either pair of opposite corners), isosceles trapezoids, and kites.
What is the line of reflection is a line of symmetry?
They are the same.They are the same.They are the same.They are the same.

Does a kite have a line symmetry?
yes it does.....if u flip it side it has the same reflection
Are reflective symmetry and reflection symmetry the same?
Yes
Is reflection symmetry similar to linear symmetry?
Yes, they are the same.
Does a pentagon have reflectional symmetry?
A pentagon does have reflective symmetry.
Is line symmetry the same as reflectional symmetry?
Line symmetry is like with butterflies or flowers, where you can slice a straight line through the midpoint of a shape, and have both sides be identical.Reflectional symmetry is where lets say to have half of a ♥. If you shined a reflection, an exact reflection, you would have line symmetry.In some terms, they are the same. In some terms, they are both linked together. In some terms, they are used completely different from each other. It's all about the situation you have symmetrical-wise.Hope this helps!-Cupcake399
What is the difference between line symmetry and rotational symmetry?
Line or reflective symmetry is really a special case of rotational symmetry but from a different viewpoint. In line symmetry imagine a line going north to south on the page. If you rotate an image out of the page around that line through 180 degrees you get a reflection. For rotational symmetry imagine that same line being perpendicular to the page so that you see it as a dot. The image is then rotated around that dot.
What is linear symmetry?
A figure has linear symmetry when after reflection, the image looks exactly the same as the original
How do you find line symmetry?
Look at a shape and see if you can see that two halves mirror each other. To check, get a mirror and put it along this line. If the shape still looks the same using the mirror you have a line of symmetry. You can also trace half of the shape, turn the tracing paper over, put it on the other half of the shape and check it is the same. Yes another way to do it is think REFLECTION. If they are exactly the same, you have a line of symmetry!
Is radial symmetry the same as line symmetry?
roughly
How can you determine whether or not a polygon has symmetry?
Look at a shape and see if you can see that two halves mirror each other. To check, get a mirror and put it along this line. If the shape still looks the same using the mirror you have a line of symmetry. You can also trace half of the shape, turn the tracing paper over, put it on the other half of the shape and check it is the same. Yes another way to do it is think REFLECTION.
