Symmetrical Figures
Some of the common examples of symmetry are listed below in the figure. In the below attached figure, we can find that each figure has some imaginary lines which divide the figure into two halves and these two halves are the same in shape and size. These imaginary Lines are called Lines of Symmetry or Axis of Symmetry. Various figures that show symmetry are added in the image below,
An object or figure is said to be symmetrical if it’s found to be similar to the other half of the object or figure. For dividing the object, into two halves an axis of symmetry is taken into consideration.
Symmetry
Symmetry is the phenomenon of dividing a geometric shape into the same halves. We can also call symmetry a balanced and proportionate similarity between two halves of an object. Symmetry is an important mathematical concept related to pictorial represented objects and figures.
In this article, we will discuss what is symmetry in detail and have a look at some solved figure-based examples that will help in understanding the concept of symmetry more clearly.
