To find out the number of horizontal and vertical planes of symmetry for the given container.
Answer to Problem 33PPS
One horizontal plane of symmetry and infinite vertical planes of symmetry.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given figure is as follows-
Calculation:
Since the top of the bottle has the same shape than the bottom of the bottle, therefore there is only horizontal planes of symmetry that will divide the can into two halves.
There are infinite vertical planes of symmetry because left side and right side of the jug are same if the plane passes through the centre of the can.
