The correct option is C

The line of symmetry is a line segment that is drawn in between a diagram in order to make the diagram equally divided in two. The line of symmetry divides a picture into two parts so that one forms a mirror image of the other.

Since all the sides of a square are equal, if it is folded across each corner or middle, it overlaps the other half.



A square has 4 lines of symmetry as shown above.
