Symmetry with respect to the axis or line A graph is said to be symmetric with respect to a line if the reflection (mirror image) about the line of every point on the graph is also on the graph The line is known as the line of symmetry.

Imagine sticking a pin in the given figure at the origin and then rotating the figure at 180 0. Points P and P 1 would be interchanged. The entire figure would look exactly as it did before rotating.

This is a function symmetric with respect to the y – axis. A function is an odd function when f(-x) = - f(x) for all x in the domain of f. This is a function symmetric with respect to the origin.
