Ch-13 Symmetry

Answer

1. 1. None of these
      Explanation: Zero lines of symmetry exists for this figure.
2. 1. Yes
      Explanation: If a figure has two or more lines of symmetry, then it will definitely have its rotational symmetry of order more than 1.
3. 3. S
      Explanation: No vertical, horizontal or slanting line on this figure will create parts that are mirror images of each other.
4. 2. 4
      Explanation: When rotated 360^o, same image of square appears four times.
5. 1. A triangle
      Explanation: The scalene triangle has no lines of symmetry.
6. 1. – q
   2. – s
   3. – p
   4. – r
7. 1. Rectangle or Rhombus
   2. Vertical-One
   3. Infinite
   4. Sunflower
8. 1. False
   2. False
   3. True
   4. True
9. Gram and moong
10. Another name of line of symmetry is axis of symmetry.
11. The letters O, M, H, T, V and X look the same after reflections because these letters have 1 vertical line of symmetry.
12. 
13. 1. 
    2. 
    3. 
14. Yes, all the butterfly have the line of symmetry.
    Rough figure and axis of symmetry is as follows
15. Symmetry refers to the exact match in shape and size between two halves of an object. It shows the proportional. There are three types of symmetry-
    1. Line of symmetry or axis of symmetry
    2. Mirror symmetry
    3. Rotational symmetryLine of symmetry or axis of symmetry: A line of symmetry divides a figure in half. Both sides of the figure must be exactly the same.Mirror symmetry– when you put a mirror along a line of symmetry, the shape formed looks like the original. This type of symmetry is known as reflectional symmetry, eg. cockroach.

       Rotational symmetry – When the object is rotated by certain angle, it looks the same and it is termed as rotational symmetry. E.g. fan.
