Chapter 14.8, Problem 15CE

To determine

To find: The symmetries of the design.

Answer to Problem 15CE

There is two lines of symmetry and one point of symmetry.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

It is given that a piece of paper into quarters as shown.

  

Calculation:

The given figure shows two imaginary lines where fold the image and have both halves match exactly so there is presence of two line of symmetry.

There exists a point in figure that splits the object into two parts in which each part has a matching part the same distance from the central point so there is one point of symmetry.

Therefore, two lines of symmetry and one point of symmetry.
