Solution

The correct option is B


Explanation for correct option:

Option B.

  • A figure has line symmetry if there is a line about which the figure may be folded so that the two parts of the figure will coincide with each other.
  • The imaginary line or axis along which you can fold a figure to obtain the symmetrical halves is called the line of symmetry.

The figure has more than two lines of symmetry as shown below:

Hence, Option B is correct.

Explanation for incorrect option:

Option A.

This figure has no symmetric line such that if there is a line about which the figure may be folded so that the two parts of the figure will coincide with each other.

Hence Option A is the incorrect option.

Option C.

This figure has only one line of symmetric such that if there is a line about which the figure may be folded so that the two parts of the figure will coincide with each other ,as shown below:

Hence Option C is the incorrect option.

Option D.

This figure has only one line of symmetry such that if there is a line about which the figure may be folded so that the two parts of the figure will coincide with each other ,as shown below:

Hence Option C is the incorrect option.
