NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Chapter 14 Question 5.

Copy the figure given here. Take any one diagonal as a line of symmetry and shade a few more squares to make the figure symmetric about a diagonal. Is there more than one way to do that? Will the figure be symmetric about both the diagonals?

Solution:

Let us mark the vertices of the square as A, B, C and D. Take the diagonal BD as a line of symmetry and shade a few more squares as shown to make the figure symmetric about this diagonal. There is only one way to do it. Clearly, the figure is symmetric about the second diagonal AC. Hence, the figure is symmetric about both the diagonals.
