Lines of symmetry in an Isosceles Triangle An isosceles triangle has 1 line of symmetry. An isosceles triangle is one that has two sides that are the same length. The triangle has two equal interior sides. Only if a triangle has two equal sides can it be called to be isosceles. Below figure shows lines […]

Lines of symmetry in a regular Pentagon What is line of symmetry ? The line of symmetry is the imaginary line where we could fold the image and have both halves match exactly. If a given line splits a given figure into two identical halves, we say that the line has a line of symmetry […]

Lines of Symmetry In Regular Polygons What is line of symmetry? An object is considered to be symmetrical, if when folded or sliced in half, both halves are mirror images of one another. An object is said to have a line of symmetry when one half of it is the mirror image of the other. […]

Vertical Line: Definition, Formula, Equation, Properties and Examples What is a Vertical Line? French Mathematician Rene Descartes trying to solve the problem of describing the position of a point on a plane with the Cartesian coordinate system and the cartesian plane. In Cartesian coordinate system, we derive a vertical and a horizontal line. When we […]

Plot Points on Cartesian Coordinate System Example: Plot the point (2, 3) and identify its position in which quadrant is located. First we will place a dot at the intersection of X and Y axis, which is the center of the Cartesian coordinate and known as the origin. From the origin, move 2 units going right. Our point is […]

    Cartesian Coordinate System  Cartesian Coordinate system developed in seventeenth century by Rene Descartes the great French philosopher and mathematician. Cartesian Coordinate system, also called rectangular Coordinate system and used to position of points on a two dimensional or three dimensional plane.  Let’s briefly learn about Cartesian Coordinate system.           Cartesian Coordinate plane The plane is called Cartesian plane […]

     Axis of Symmetry – Symmetrical Figures Definition – Axis of Symmetry: A line is drawn from the middle of the figure that acts like a mirror is known as Axis of Symmetry or Linear Symmetry. The line divides the figure into two symmetrical parts, then figure on one side is the mirror image of the figure on […]
