Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: 4TH GRADE MATH - LINE OF SYMMETRY WORKSHEETS — Steemit
You're asked to complete the other half of each shape using your knowledge of line of symmetry. This means you need to draw the mirror image of the given half across the dotted line (the line of symmetry).

Let’s go through each shape one by one and explain how to complete it.

---

🔹 Shape 1 (Top Left)


- Line of symmetry: Vertical (dotted line down the middle).
- Given: Left half of a shape that looks like a stylized “4” or staircase with diagonal and horizontal lines.
- How to complete:
- For every point on the left side, reflect it across the vertical line to the right side.
- Example: The top-left corner point should have a matching point the same distance to the right of the line.
- Mirror all angles and segments exactly.

Completed shape will look like a symmetric “4” or hourglass-like figure, with both sides mirroring each other vertically.

---

🔹 Shape 2 (Top Right)


- Line of symmetry: Vertical.
- Given: Left half of a shape resembling a “5” or zig-zag rectangle.
- How to complete:
- Again, mirror each segment and corner across the vertical line.
- The top horizontal segment will be mirrored downward on the right.
- The “step” in the middle will also be mirrored.

Completed shape will be a symmetric version of the “5” shape, forming a kind of symmetrical “S” or “Z” pattern inside a rectangle.

---

🔹 Shape 3 (Bottom Left)


- Line of symmetry: Vertical.
- Given: Left half of a star (looks like a 5-pointed star cut in half vertically).
- How to complete:
- The star has points going left and up/down. Mirror each point across the vertical line.
- The top point is already centered — so it stays.
- The bottom-left point becomes bottom-right.
- The mid-left point becomes mid-right.

Completed shape will be a full, symmetric 5-pointed star.

---

🔹 Shape 4 (Bottom Right)


- Line of symmetry: Horizontal (dotted line at the bottom).
- Given: Top half of a shape that looks like a crown or boat.
- How to complete:
- Since the line is horizontal, you must reflect the shape downward.
- Every point above the line gets mirrored below it at the same vertical distance.
- The triangle peak at the top will be mirrored as an inverted triangle below.
- The slanted sides will mirror downward.

Completed shape will look like a symmetric crown or diamond-like shape, with the top half mirrored underneath.

## 🎯 Summary of Steps for Each:

| Shape | Symmetry Line | Action |
|-------|----------------|--------|
| 1 | Vertical | Mirror left → right |
| 2 | Vertical | Mirror left → right |
| 3 | Vertical | Mirror left → right (complete star) |
| 4 | Horizontal | Mirror top → bottom |

## ✏️ Tips for Drawing:

- Use grid lines to count squares and ensure accuracy.
- For each vertex (corner), measure its distance from the line of symmetry and place the mirrored point the same distance on the other side.
- Connect the mirrored points in the same order as the original shape.

If you were to draw these, the final result would be four fully symmetric shapes:

1. A vertically symmetric “4” or angular figure.
2. A vertically symmetric “5” or zigzag rectangle.
3. A full 5-pointed star.
4. A horizontally symmetric crown/boat shape (like a diamond or hourglass).

You’ve now completed the task using line symmetry!
