Unless the rectangle is a square, it only has two lines of symmetry. Please refer to the Related Link below to see diagrams of both rectangles and squares with lines of symmetry drawn. The images are near the bottom of the page.

How many lines of symmetry do rectangles have?

Its 4 just like a square * * * * * No it is not. The diagonals of a square are lines of symmetry; not so with a rectangle. So there are only 2 lines of symmetry. In theory, the statement made by the User above^^^ is true, but when it comes to the decisive moment where one has to create structures, or anything that might save or take away lives, that fails... In a rectangle, if you make diagonals, the rectangle will be split into 2 equal length, equal size, right triangles. These people have made the common misconception of trusting a textbook entirely for their answers. Textbooks are written by humans, and humans make mistakes. If everyone understood this, 9/11 never would have happened.


What does a shape with 4 sides and NO symmetry look like?
