Question

symmetry quick check
which of the following summarizes the reflections that carry a parallelogram onto itself? (1 point)
a parallelogram has two lines of reflection that carry it onto itself: one horizontal through the midpoints of each side, and one vertical through the midpoints of the top and bottom.
a parallelogram has four lines of symmetry: horizontal through the midpoints, vertical through the midpoints, and both diagonals.
a parallelogram has two lines of reflection: flipped on each diagonal will carry it onto itself.
a parallelogram does not have any lines of reflection.

Explanation:

A general parallelogram (not a special type like rectangle or rhombus) lacks lines of reflection symmetry. Reflecting over midpoint lines or diagonals does not map it onto itself.

Answer:

D. A parallelogram does not have any lines of reflection.
