We are asked to determine if the numbers that are written have lines of symmetry. A line of symmetry is a line that divides a figure into two equal mirror images. According to the shape of a number, this may or may not have a line of symmetry.

The first number written is 8. This number has the following line of symmetry:

It has a vertical and a horizontal line of symmetry.

The number 1 and the number 2 have no lines of symmetry, therefore, the statement is not correct.
