Question

select the correct answer.
what is the total number of lines of symmetry for this figure?
a. 0
b. 1
c. 2
d. 4

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of line of symmetry

A line of symmetry is a line that divides a figure into two congruent parts such that when the figure is folded along the line, the two parts match exactly.

Step2: Analyze the 'X' - shaped figure

For the 'X' - shaped figure, there are two lines of symmetry. One is the vertical line passing through the center of the 'X' (if we consider the standard orientation of the 'X'), and the other is the horizontal line passing through the center of the 'X'.

Answer:

C. 2
