Solution
We know that a line of symmetry is a line that cuts a shape exactly in half. This means that if you were to fold the shape along the line, both halves would match exactly.
Line(s) of symmetry for the given brick patterns are:
Brick pattern (ii) is asymmetric as no line of symmetry can be drawn on the pattern.
