2 A line of symmetry is sometimes called a mirror line Line of symmetry A 2D shape has a line of symmetry if the line divides the shape into 2 congruent halves, one the mirror image of the other. A B Congruent = IDENTICAL

3 © T Madas How many lines of symmetry does a square have? How many lines of symmetry does a rectangle have?

4 © T Madas If a line, is a line of symmetry then the shape must fold exactly onto itself along that line.

6 Is this a line of symmetry?
