Symmetry Review
1.
Draw in the lines of symmetry on each shape
a)
b)
2.
a)
Identify all the lines of symmetry in the shape by drawing them; state how many there are. If
the shape has rotational symmetry, give its order and angle.
b)
3. Draw the image of ABCD after each reflection as given below. Write the coordinates of the shape
formed by ABCD and its reflection.
a) Reflected about the line y = 6
b) Reflected about the line created by joining the points (0, 0) and (2, 2)
4. State whether the object has rotational symmetry. If applicable, give the angle and the order of
rotation.
a)
b)
c)
5. Draw the image of each object after the transformation:
a) The pentagon is rotated 180° counter-clockwise around the happy face.
b) The triangle is rotated 210° clockwise around the happy face.
6. For each pair of shapes, determine if there is line symmetry or rotational symmetry between the
shapes. Describe any symmetries that exist (remember, for line symmetry that means give the equation
of the line, for rotational symmetry give the angle of rotation and the point it is around).
a)
b)
7. Create a translation of the object by moving it right 3 units and down 4 units.
