Q : 3    In each figure alongside, a letter of the alphabet is shown along with a vertical line. Take the mirror image of the letter in the given line. Find which letters look the same after reflection (i.e. which letters look the same in the image) and which do not. Can you guess why?

Try for   \LARGE O E M N P H L T S V X

Mirror images for the given figures are shown as follows:

So, from the above-drawn figures, we can say that the figures having the vertical line of symmetry will have the same mirror images and the letters are:

O, M, H, T, V, X

Thus, the mirror images of these letters will look the same.

Q : 2    Copy the following drawing on squared paper. Complete each one of them such that the resulting figure has two dotted lines as two lines of symmetry.

How did you go about completing the picture?
 

(a) The given figure can be completed with the help of two symmetric lines i.e., horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the completed figure is shown as follows:

(b) We can complete the figure with the help of horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the above-given figure can be completed as follows:

(c) The given figure can be completed with the help of horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the completed figure is shown below:

(d) The given figure can be completed with the help of horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the completed figure is shown below:

(e) The same parts can be drawn to complete the given figure with the help of horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the completed figure is shown below:

(f)  The same parts can be drawn to complete the given figure with the help of horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

Therefore, the completed figure is shown below:

If you are 100 cm in front of a mirror, where does your image appear to be? If you move towards the mirror, how does your image move?
 

The image appears to be 200 cm away from us, i.e., 100 cm on the other of the mirror.

And if we move towards the mirror, the image moves closer to us and to the mirror, but the size remains the same.

Q: 6    Trace each figure and draw the lines of symmetry if any:

        

         

(a) The given figure is asymmetrical. Hence, there is no possibility of the line of symmetry.

(b) By observation, the given figure has two squares having a common vertex.

Hence, there are two lines of symmetry possible.

(c) By observation, the given figure has two squares with a common centre.

Hence, the given figure will have four lines of symmetry.

(d) By observation, the given is octagonal.

Hence, it will have two lines of symmetry.

 octagonal

(e) By observation, the given figure is not any specific.

Hence, It will have only one line of symmetry.

not specific

(f) Here, we can observe that the given figure is a four-cornered figure.

Hence, it will have four lines of symmetry.

Q: 5    On a squared paper, sketch the following:

            (a) A triangle with a horizontal line of symmetry but no vertical line of symmetry.

            (b) A quadrilateral with both horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry.

            (c) A quadrilateral with a horizontal line of symmetry but no vertical line of symmetry.

            (d) A hexagon with exactly two lines of symmetry.

            (e) A hexagon with six lines of symmetry.

            (Hint: It will be helpful if you first draw the lines of symmetry and then complete the figures.) 

(a) Triangle with only one line of symmetry is the horizontal line of symmetry and no vertical line of symmetry.

Hence, for the given case,

The triangle can be drawn as:

horizontal

(b) The quadrilateral which has both the horizontal line and the vertical line of symmetry.

Hence, for the given case:

The quadrilateral can be drawn as:

(c) The quadrilateral which has only one line of symmetry that is:

The horizontal line of symmetry and No, vertical line of symmetry.

Hence, for the given case we have:

The quadrilateral can be drawn as:

(d) The hexagon which has exactly two lines of symmetry that is:

The horizontal line of symmetry and the vertical line of symmetry.

Hence, for the given case, we have the hexagon can be drawn as:

hexagon

(e) The hexagon has all six lines of symmetry.

First, draw the six lines of symmetry and then complete the hexagon.

Hence, for the given case,

The hexagon can be drawn as:

hexagon2

Q : 4    Can you draw a triangle which has

            (a) exactly one line of symmetry?

            (b) exactly two lines of symmetry?

            (c) exactly three lines of symmetry?

            (d) no lines of symmetry?

            Sketch a rough figure in each case. 

(a) Yes, with one line of symmetry we have the triangle:

triangle

This is an isosceles triangle.

(b) No, as there exists no triangle with only two symmetry lines.

Hence, no such triangle is possible.

(c) Yes, a triangle with three lines of symmetry is possible:

And it is an equilateral triangle, shown below in the figure.

equlaiteral

(d) Yes, the triangle with no line of symmetry is possible and it is a scalene triangle:

Shown below,

scalene trinagle
