Subjective Type

The numbers of lines of symmetry in a rectangle and a square are ____ (Equal/unequal).

Solution

Unequal
Square has $$4$$ lines of symmetry viz., horizontal and vertical lines passing through its center and its both diagonals.
Where as, rectangle has two lines of symmetry viz., horizontal and vertical lines passing through its center. Diagonals are not line of symmetry for rectangle.
So, The numbers of lines of symmetry in a rectangle and a square are $$\mathrm{unequal}$$
