Question

Which of the following is correct with respect to reflection symmetry of the letters of English alphabet?

• A. Letters A, H, I, M, W have a vertical mirror reflectional symmetry.
• B. Letters B, C, D, E, H have a horizontal mirror reflectional symmetry.
• C. Letters O, X have both horizontal and vertical mirror reflectional symmetry.
• D. All of the statements are correct.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

All of the statements are correct.

A shape has line symmetry when one half of it is the mirror image of the other half. A mirror line helps us to visualise the line of symmetry.

Letters A, H, M, W have a vertical mirror reflectional symmetry.

Letters B, C, D, E, H have a horizontal mirror reflectional symmetry.

Letters O, X have both horizontal and vertical mirror reflectional symmetry.
