Why is symmetry important in geometry?

• It makes shapes easier to study

• It is only important in certain types of geometry

• It helps in understanding the balance and proportion in shapes

• It is not important; it just makes shapes look nice

Why is a diagonal line not considered a line of symmetry for a rectangle?

• Because rectangles cannot have diagonal lines of symmetry

• Because it divides the rectangle into two unequal parts

• Because the two halves do not overlap perfectly when folded

• Because it creates a new shape
