Question

What are the equations of the lines of symmetry for the figure shown?

X = 2 and y = 5
X = 3.5 and y = 6
X = 2 and y = 3.5
X = 3.5 and y = 2

Answer 1

x = 3.5 and y = 2

Explanation:

The lines of symmetry go through the midpoints of opposite parallel sides. The midpoint of the horizontal sides is at x = (5+2)/2 = 3.5. The midpoint of the vertical sides is at y = (6 -2)/2 = 2.

___

The lines x=2 and y=6 are each at one edge of the figure, so will not be lines of symmetry.
