Shapes and Lines of Symmetry | 4th Grade Geometry Worksheets - Free Printable

Since I can't view or access images directly, I can't see the specific shapes in your uploaded image. However, based on the description of the worksheet titled "Shapes and Lines of Symmetry", I can help you solve this type of problem and explain how to identify lines of symmetry.

🔍 What is a Line of Symmetry?

A line of symmetry is a line that divides a shape into two identical halves, such that one half is the mirror image of the other. If you fold the shape along the line, both sides will match perfectly.

✔ How to Solve This Worksheet:

For each shape, determine if it has a line of symmetry. If it does, draw the line(s) and write "yes" or "no" accordingly.

Let’s go through common shapes like those likely on the worksheet:

---

#### 1. Square
- ✔ Has 4 lines of symmetry:
- 2 diagonals
- 1 vertical
- 1 horizontal
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 2. Regular Pentagon (5 sides)
- ✔ Has 5 lines of symmetry:
- One from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 3. Rhombus (diamond shape)
- ✔ Has 2 lines of symmetry:
- Along the diagonals
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 4. Flower-like shape (e.g., 6-petal flower)
- ✔ Usually has 6 lines of symmetry if evenly spaced
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 5. Oval or Ellipse
- ✔ Has 2 lines of symmetry:
- Vertical and horizontal axes
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 6. Star (5-pointed star)
- ✔ Has 5 lines of symmetry:
- From each point to the center
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 7. Key-shaped figure
- ✘ Typically no line of symmetry because one side is curved, the other straight
- ✔️ Answer: No

#### 8. Octagon (regular)
- ✔ Has 8 lines of symmetry:
- 4 through opposite vertices, 4 through midpoints of opposite sides
- ✔️ Answer: Yes

#### 9. Arrow (like →)
- ✘ Usually no line of symmetry unless symmetrically designed
- But if it's symmetric (e.g., arrowhead mirrored), then 1 vertical line
- ⚠️ Depends on design — most arrows have no line of symmetry
- ✔️ Answer: No

---

📝 General Tips:

- Look for mirror-image halves.
- Try folding the shape mentally.
- Regular polygons (equal sides & angles) always have lines of symmetry.
- Irregular or asymmetric shapes usually don’t.

✔ Final Answer Format (for each shape):

Write:
> Yes — draw a line of symmetry
> No — leave blank or write "no"
