Question

State whether the following statement is true or false:

Linear symmetry and mirror image are related to each other.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Linear symmetry: The imaginary line or axis along which you can fold a figure to obtain the symmetrical halves is called the line of symmetry.

Mirror image: An image which is like a reflection in a mirror.Everything is the same, except reversed.

Linear symmetry and mirror image are closely related to each other. In linear symmetry a line of symmetry splits a figure in half so that each piece is exactly the same whereas mirror image symmetry is when an object is reflected across a line like looking in a mirror.

Hence, the given statement is true.
