Question
the figure is an isosceles trapezoid. how many lines of reflectional symmetry does the trapezoid have? 0 1 2 3
A line of reflectional symmetry is a line that divides a figure into two congruent parts such that one part is the mirror - image of the other. For an isosceles trapezoid, there is only one line of symmetry. This line is the vertical line that passes through the mid - points of the two parallel sides (the bases) of the trapezoid. If we try to draw any other line (horizontal or non - vertical), it will not divide the isosceles trapezoid into two mirror - image congruent parts.
