Study Notes
- Symmetry is commonly found in math, art, and design, where objects can be divided into identical pieces.
- Objects with symmetry are called symmetrical, while those without are asymmetrical.
- The simplest form of geometric symmetry is reflectional symmetry, where an object is like a mirror image along a line of symmetry.
- Some objects have one line of symmetry, while others may have more - like the triangle having one line and the square having four.
- Symmetry is also found in nature, with butterflies being a popular example of symmetrical objects.
