This math topic focuses on identifying the number of lines of symmetry in various 2D shapes. It covers basic shapes, including squares, hexagons, pentagons, and octagons. Students are asked to determine how many lines of symmetry each presented shape possesses from a set of multiple-choice answers. This is part of an introductory unit on 2D shape classification within geometry, enhancing students' understanding of geometric properties and symmetry concepts.
