Question

Find the number of lines of symmetry of the following shape. How will you check your answers $?$

Answer 1

Determine the number of lines of symmetry:

The axis or imaginary line that goes through the centre of the shape or object and divides it into similar halves is known as the line of symmetry.

The lines of symmetry are represented by dotted lines in the below figure,

In the above figure, the lines $\mathrm{a}$ and $\mathrm{b}$ are the lines of symmetry.

Hence, the given figure has $2$ lines of symmetry.
