To Find: Whether the figure has plane symmetry, axis symmetry, both or neither.

Answer to Problem 41SPR

The Figure is both plane symmetry and axis symmetry.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given diagram is shown in Figure 1

  

Figure 1

Calculation:

Consider the way in which the planes cuts the figure is shown in Figure 2

  

Figure 2

The figure shows that the Figure is symmetrical along the horizontal and the vertical plane.
