Symmetry is everywhere! It's in nature, architecture, shapes, letters, etc.
A figure has line symmetry if it can be folded or reflected so that each of the two parts are congruent. The line of reflection is called the line of symmetry.
Below is an example of symmetry in nature.

Symmetry in architecture!
Where do you see symmetry in the world around you?
I see symmetry everywhere. for ex:
ReplyDeleteI am symmetrical, my kitchen table is symetrical, the mouse on my computer is symetrical, and my teddy bear is symmetrical.Because you can split it vertical of whatever the item.

Some televisions are squares. If you split them in half, they are symmetrical. Heres a reflection : http://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/nature-reflection-and-symmetry-1.jpg I think its pretty cool how nature works =P

If you stretch a bird out, wings and all, and then you cut a line through the middle of the bird it will be symmetrical! It will work with a butterfly too!
ReplyDeleteWe found a star, snowflake, a flower, smiley face, butterfly, seashell, White House building, bow, scale, moon, air plane, the letter B, the letter T, stop sign, diamond,and sometimes some kites.
ReplyDelete(:Peace:)
A ceiling fan is symetrical plus the bottom of a C.D. An apple is symetrical[I think]. Also the white house. Go Obama. There is one more thing. You sit on it in your BMW. It is the seat of your car.
