Lines of symmetry, step by step

A line of symmetry is a fold that makes the two halves match.

Lines of symmetry: kite

  1. A line of symmetry is a FOLD: crease along it and the two halves must land exactly on each other. Not "looks balanced" — land on each other.
  2. Here is one of them. Crease along that line and the part on the left lands exactly on the part on the right — that is what makes it count.
  3. And that is the only one: a kite has 1 line of symmetry.

How it works.

  1. 01

    A line of symmetry is a FOLD: crease along it and the two halves must land exactly on each other. Not "looks balanced" — land on each other.

  2. 02

    Here is one of them. Crease along that line and the part on the left lands exactly on the part on the right — that is what makes it count.

  3. 03

    And that is the only one: a kite has 1 line of symmetry.
