Solution

The correct option is C Points P and R

We have to identify two points in such a way that the line joining them divides the given triangle into two symmetrical halves.

Let's connect the points to determine which point divides the figure into mirror halves.


We can see that the line segments PQ and PS are not dividing the shape into symmetrical halves.

However, line segment PR divides the shape into symmetrical halves, as both the halves of the figure have the same features and both the images are mirrored halves of each other.


Thus, points P and R should be joined together to divide the shape into symmetrical mirror halves.
