More reflections Worksheet
K-12: Materials at high school level.
Objective: Learn about rotational symmetry as it occurs in the real world
Materials: A print out of this worksheet
1. These pictures are found in the real world.
- Draw the reflectional line of symmetry for each picture.
- Are the lines of symmetry horizontal or vertical (Circle one)?
If the picture does not have any reflectional lines of symmetry, just write, no lines of symmetry!
Horizontal Vertical | Horizontal Vertical |
Horizontal Vertical | Horizontal Vertical |
2. How many reflectional lines of symmetry can you find in each picture?
If the picture does not have any reflectional lines of symmetry, state that.
How many lines of symmetry? _____ | How many lines of symmetry? _____ |
How many lines of symmetry? _____ | How many lines of symmetry? _____ |
3. Only half of the images below are shown. Draw the other half using reflectional symmetry.
Show Me Standards: 2. Geometric and spatial sense involving measurement (including length, area, volume), trigonometry, and similarity and transformations of shapes.
NCTM Standard: Apply transformations and use symmetry to analyze mathematical situations.
