This math topic focuses on identifying the number of lines of symmetry in different two-dimensional shapes, which is a fundamental skill in the introductory classification of 2D shapes within geometry. The problems ask students to determine which shapes possess specific numbers of symmetry lines, ranging from 3 to 8 lines. Each question presents multiple-choice options with corresponding images of shapes for visual assistance. This exercise helps in enhancing spatial reasoning and understanding symmetry in geometric figures.
