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 shapes have right angles and are symmetrical?

The most basic answer would be a square, which is both symmetrical and regular. However, rectangles are also symmetrical, as are hexagons with two opposing 90° angles and four matching 135° angles. In fact, the number of potential shapes are infinite, unless you specify exactly how many right angles the shape must have.


What are non symmetrical shapes?

I dont really know. That is what I am trying to figure out !! I think non-symmetrical shapes are shapes where all sides are different lengths/sizes. For example, a square or rectangle would not be non-symmetrical. It would be symmetrial because not all of the sides are different lengths. Hope that kinda helps. If not, I'm sorry!!
