Understanding Lines of Symmetry

The video tutorial explores the concept of symmetry, focusing on lines of symmetry in shapes. It explains symmetry with everyday examples and defines lines of symmetry as lines that divide shapes into identical halves. The video discusses symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes, highlighting that some shapes have multiple lines of symmetry. It examines symmetry in triangles and regular polygons, noting that regular polygons have lines of symmetry equal to their number of sides. The tutorial concludes with practice questions to reinforce learning.

What is symmetry and where can we see examples of it in our daily lives?
