Question

Which of the following will be the axis of symmetry for the given figure.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Option 'b' is the correct axis of symmetry.
When we fold the figure along the axis of symmetry , if the figure is exactly divided into two identical halves, then the figure is said to be symmetrical.



Here, when figure 'b' is folded along the axis of symmetry, the figure is exactly divided into two identical halves. hence it is having the axis of symmetry.
When figures 'a', 'c' and 'd' are folded along the axis of symmetry, the figures are not divided into two identical halves. hence it is not the axis of symmetry.
