Notes on Symmetry

1. Concept of Symmetry (Linear Symmetry) : Consider a plane mirror mm’. If your face F is at a distance ‘d’ before the mirror ; the image F, of your face is also formed behind the mirror at distance “d” from it.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p1
Now, if the Figure 1, given alongside, is folded about the mirror mm’, the object F and its image F’ coincide. Since on folding the figure about mm’ its two parts exactly coincide, we say that the figure is symmetrical about the mirror line mm’. For the reason, the mirror line mm’ is called line of symmetry of the whole figure including face F, its image F’ and the mirror mm’.

Checking for  Symmetry


in order to check, whether a given figure is symmetrical about a line in it or not; fold the figure about that line. If part of the figure, which lies on one side of the line exactly coincides with the part of the figure on the other side of the line, then the figure is symmetrical about that line.
For Example :
(i) A line segment is symmetrical about its perpendicular bisector

(ii) An angle (with equal arms) is symmetrical about its bisector
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p3
(iii) An isosceles triangle has only one line of symmetry. The line of symmetry is the bisectors of the angle contained by equal sides.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p4
(iv) An equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry. The bisectors of the angles are the lines of symmetry.

(v) A kite shaped figure has only one line of symmetry.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p6
(vi) A figure of the shape of an arrow-head has only one line of symmetry.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p7
(vii) The letter ‘A’ has only one line of symmetry.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p8
(viii) The letter ‘H’ has two lines of symmetry.
Selina Concise Mathematicsclass 6 ICSE Solutions - Revision Exercise Symmetry (Including Constructions on Symmetry)-p9
(ix) A circle has an infinite number of lines of symmetry.
Every line, which passes through the centre of the circle, is a line of symmetry.
