How many axes does a parallelogram have?
Properties. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel in pairs. A parallelogram usually does not have an axis of symmetry. However, except if it is a rectangle (having right angles), or isosceles (having adjacent congruent sides), the parallelogram has two perpendicular axes of symmetry.
What are the 4 axes of symmetry?
Regular Polygons

|---|---|
| A Square (4 sides) has 4 Lines of Symmetry | |
| A Regular Pentagon (5 sides) has 5 Lines of Symmetry | |
| A Regular Hexagon (6 sides) has 6 Lines of Symmetry | |
| A Regular Heptagon (7 sides) has 7 Lines of Symmetry |
Does a parallelogram have rotational symmetry?
Order 2
Parallelogram/Rotational symmetry
Does parallelogram have symmetry?
Parallelogram. A parallelogram has no lines of symmetry. It has rotational symmetry of order two.
How many axes of symmetry does a square have?
four lines
A square has four lines of symmetry. It has rotational symmetry of order four.
Are parallelograms symmetrical?
A parallelogram has no lines of symmetry. It has rotational symmetry of order two.
How many axes of symmetry does a rhombus have?
2 lines of symmetry
A rhombus has 2 lines of symmetry which cuts it into two identical parts. Both the lines of symmetry in a rhombus are from its diagonals.
How many lines of symmetry does a parallelogram have?
Zor Shekhtman. General parallelogram has no lines of symmetry.
How many lines of symmetry does a square have?
Square is a special type of parallelogram with four lines of symmetry – two diagonals and two lines going through the midpoints of opposite sides.
Are the opposite sides of a parallelogram the same?
Opposite sides of parallelogram are equally long (they are same in length) and are parallel to each other. Squares, Rectangles, and rhombuses are all parallelograms. A trapezoid is not a parallelogram. A trapezoid has exactly two parallel sides whereas a parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides.
What is the difference between a trapezoid and a parallelogram?
A trapezoid has exactly two parallel sides whereas a parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. A trapezoid is a special kind of parallelogram with at least one pair of parallel sides but neither has a reflectional symmetry nor a rotational symmetry. Therefore you cannot make observations based upon symmetry.
