3.1 - 3.2 symmetry and constructions - graded. name the type(s) of symmetry. line. point. none.
A rhombus (the shape shown) has two lines of symmetry. A line of symmetry is a line that divides a shape into two congruent parts. A point - symmetry means that for every point on the shape, there is a corresponding point on the opposite side of a central point such that the central point is the mid - point of the line segment joining the two points. A rhombus has line symmetry but not point symmetry (except in the special case of a square which is a type of rhombus). Since the general rhombus has lines that can divide it into congruent parts, the type of symmetry is line symmetry.
