Best Answer

the distance from a point on either ray of the angle that is equidistance from the axis of symmetry is the line of symmetry. the line of symmetry dives the angle in half.

An angle having equal arms possesses how many lines of symmetry show all the lines of symmetry in such an angle?

It is not possible to show anything using this browser, but the only line of symmetry is the bisector of the angle.


How many axis of symmetry does a right angle triangle has?

It depends. If it is a right isosceles triangle, it has one axis of symmetry (the line which would bisect the right angle). A right scalene triangle has no axis of symmetry.


Is it possible for a triangle to have two lines of symmetry?

No, it's not. Reflecting a triangle about *any* line has to move at least one corner (if all three stayed in place, they'd all have to be on a line, which is impossible). If the line is a line of symmetry, the result should be the same triangle, which means that the corner got moved to another corner. Reflections don't change angles, so the angles at two corners are equal. If there are TWO lines of symmetry, there's two DIFFERENT pairs of equality between the angles: angle A equals angle B, and angle B equals angle C. But then, a third pair of equality has to exist: angle A must equal angle C. This means the triangle is equilateral, and has three lines of symmetry! So the only way for the triangle to have two lines of symmetry is for it to have three.


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.

Does the number seven have one line of symmetry?

No. Look 7 the top and bottom are uneven lengths and no matter what angle you put the line of symmetry at, there will still be no proper symmetry line

Can you have line of symmetry but not rotational symmetry?

Yes, it is possible to have a shape that has a line of symmetry but does not have rotational symmetry. An example is the letter "K", which has a vertical line of symmetry but cannot be rotated to match its original orientation.


What shape is it when it has no line if symmetry and a right angle?

Most shapes have no line of symmetry and no right angle. Look at your hand, feet, face or body (the last two are only nearly symmetrical), the keyboard, the monitor.


How many lines of symmetry can you find in a circle?

There are an infinite number of lines of symmetry in a circle, as any diameter will be a line of symmetry and there are an infinite number of angle measure for that line to pass through.


How many lines of symmetry does circle have?

I would think there would be an infinite number of lines of symmetry. Any line passing through the center of the circle, regardless of the angle will be a symmetry line.

What do you call to a line of symmetry of an isosceles triangle?

There is no specific name. It is one of the medians, angle bisectors and perpendicular bisectors: one set of these is coincident and is the line of symmetry.
