1.1 We are daily surrounded by different symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes. Study the examples below
carefully and decide whether the 2D-Shape representations of 3D-Objects is symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Write symmetrical or asymmetrical below each diagram. You may use a ruler and sharp pencil to draw line(s)
of symmetry on the diagrams to help you decide.
(6)
1.2 State whether the dashed line(s) in the following diagrams are lines of symmetry. Write only Yes or No in the
spaces provided below each diagram.
(4)
1.3 Use a sharp pencil and a ruler to neatly draw dashed line(s) of symmetry on the following diagrams. Make sure
you draw ALL the possible symmetry lines.
(3)
1.4 Is it true that a circle has an infinite (unlimited) number of symmetry lines? ___________ (1)

2.2 Copy and use the same shape and size triangle as drawn on the grid below to tessellate the following:
2.2.1 a rectangle, 2.2.2 any other quadrilateral and 2.2.3 a bigger triangle.
NOTE: You can twist and turn the given triangle any way you like, as long as the size and shape stay the same.
