📚 Quick Study Guide

📐
• Definition: Symmetry means that one shape becomes exactly like another when you move it in some way: turn, flip or slide.
📏
• Line of Symmetry: A line that divides a shape into two identical halves. It's like looking in a mirror!
🔄
• Reflection Symmetry: Also known as mirror symmetry. If you fold a shape along its line of symmetry, the two halves match perfectly.
✨
• Identifying Symmetry: Look for shapes that can be folded in half so that both halves match exactly.
