In Taj Mahal and the butterfly there is one line of symmetry and there are so many other things also in our
daily life which are having one or more line of symmetry.
Reflection and Symmetry
The line symmetry is closely related to mirror reflection.
When dealing with mirror reflection, we have to take into account the left ↔ right changes in
orientation.
The line of symmetry is also called Mirror Line because the mirror image of an object is
symmetrical to the image.
When we see an object in the mirror then there is no change in the length and angles of the object
except one thing i.e. the image is opposite to the original image.
