Question

Which of the following is true about the given figure?

• A. Asymmetric along the line XY
• B. Symmetric along the perpendicular bisector ${}^{\prime }{l}^{\prime }$
• C. Symmetric along the arc
• D. Have infinite lines of symmetry

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Symmetric along the perpendicular bisector ${}^{\prime }{l}^{\prime }$

A figure is said to have a line of symmetry or linear symmetry if there exists a line which divides the figure into two identical halves such that they coincide when folded along this line.

In the figure, there is one line of symmetry. The figure is symmetric along the perpendicular bisector ${}^{\prime }{l}^{\prime }$ of the diameter XY.
