How to Identify the Line of Symmetry of a Particular Figure by Definition?
Simply try to fold the paper from any line that seems more like the line of symmetry. If on folding the paper from a particular line the two halves obtained are identical then that line is the line of symmetry for that figure. A plane figure may have more than one line of symmetry. For example, a square has four lines of symmetry, two of its diagonals and two lines passing through the midpoints of the opposite sides. A circle has infinite lines of symmetry, since infinite number of diameters can be drawn through its centre. A rectangle has two lines of symmetry, each passing through the midpoints of each pair of opposite sides.
